Ingredients
6 bell peppers (your choice of colors)1/2 cup prepared or premade pasta sauce1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed1 (8-ounce ) can corn (there's a picture of a 16-ounce can; I only used half)1 small onion, diced2 cups cooked long grain rice1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika1/4 teaspoon kosher salt1/4 teaspoon black pepper1 cup shredded cheddar cheese 1/3 cup water
Directions
Use a 6-quart slow cooker. Cut the tops off of the peppers and remove the seeds and membranes from the inside of each. In a mixing bowl, combine the pasta sauce, beans, corn, onion, rice, spices, and cheese. Mix well to combine----it will be quite gloppy. Shove as much of this concoction as you can into each of your cored peppers. Carefully nestle the peppers into the pot. Pour 1/3 cup water around the pepper bases.


Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4. The pepper will wilt a bit, but still be intact. Carefully remove them with serving spoons.
