Stuffed Peppers

Name: Stuffed Peppers Recipe
Prep time: 30 min
Cook time: 60 min
Total time: 90 min
Yield: 6
Ingredients: Melt shortening then mix in flour to make a paste. Then add tomato paste and sugar. Add water slowly enough that it will eventually cover the peppers. Mix the burger rice and eggs (I also add 2 tsp garlic salt 1 tsp Paprika and pepper). Then stuff each pepper with the mixture--should make 4-6 bell peppers. You can also make meatballs with the leftovers and just add them to the gravy they will solidify pretty quickly. (My kids prefer the meatballs.) I cut the tops off of the peppers and throw them in the tomato gravy as well.; Great with bread and butter!; Tip: I start the sauce mixture first so that it's boiling by the time I get the meat mixture made and stuff the peppers. I boil the peppers in the tomato gravy until peppers are tender and meat is cooked about 1 hour seems to take much longer in the crockpot.

Sausage and Cabbage Dinner

I'll admit this is approximate since when I made this it was about half the amount. I didn't want to be eating this for the next 5-6 days. Even the number of servings is approximate.

P.S. I'd love to substitute a low sodium turkey kielbasa so if you know of a good brand please drop me a line. It might be in my local grocery store.Submitted by: BFREDLY
