1 ½ cups cooked rice
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
¼ tsp salt

Notes

Swap out red bell peppers for a sweeter version of this dish.

The prep work for this dish can all be done the night before; just put the stuffed peppers into the crockpot in the morning, turn it on and go.

The filling for the stuffed bell peppers freezes well, so if you'd like you can double just the filling ingredients and freeze a batch for later. Label with "Stuffed Bell Pepper Filling: Thaw and stuff 6 seeded bell peppers with vegetable mixture. Place in crockpot, cover, and cook on low 6-8 hours (high: 3-4 hours). During the last 30 minutes of cooking time, sprinkle with ¼ cup of cheese and allow cheese to melt."
