I followed the directions, but they still came out bland and the filling was quite mushy. Not sure what I may have done wrong.

Family of 4 requested that I never make these again. The peppers were almost mush at 8 hrs on low.

Does it matter what size slow cooker you use for recipes? 3-4-5-6 quart?

Hi Paula: Just want to share a short cut for you that involves less clean up. I saw the show you did with the omellette in a bag. Instead of mixing the egg mixture put the eggs directly in the bag. Nothing to wash. Joanne

Paula and her boys, Love your recipes -- I copy off the Twitter offerings I receive on my twitter page, send them to friends, plus I get your emails. It's so easy to go on Google and type your name in with a recipe, and up pops whatever is there. I'm glad you posted the stuffed green peppers (crock pot) as they are real comfort food from my childhood. I might try them with some crumbled up turkey Italian sausage added with the beef as my husband doesn't like cheese (!!). Wished I lived on your coast near your restaurant! Keep on keeping on!

Just printed out this recipe. Glad I read the comments because I think I would have cooked the ground beef first. Thanks.
