Slow Cooker Pepper Beef
When I wrote the toast to thank our guests for coming to our wedding, one thing I mentioned was how precious “time” is… If someone decides to spend their time with you, you should definitely feel blessed!
We all have frantic schedules so when we can cut corners to save some time and get ahead, it’s awesome! Prepping and cooking is time consuming and finding ways to reduce it is always a plus for home cooks. One of the best appliances to do this is a slow cooker…
There are many recipes I use the crock pot for like my El Pollo Cinco de Mayo (Mexican Chicken), Chili, Beef Stew, BBQ Sloppy Joes, Texas BBQ Pulled Pork, Beef Barley Soup, Red Beans & Rice, Beef Brisket, Mulled Cider, Slow Cooker Rice Pudding, and many more including this featured recipe… my Slow Cooker Pepper Beef!
With a great combination of ingredients and lots of peppers, this is a flavorful dish you’ll love serving to your family. It has a nice Asian twist to it, perfect to serve over rice. I’m using some of my homemade Chili Oil to add a little zip to it… nothing crazy. This Slow Cooker Pepper Beef is the perfect comfort food to enjoy on weeknights.
There’s a little prep to do but when it’s done, you put everything in the crock pot, set the timer and voilà… a few hours later there’s a nice hot dish waiting for you to enjoy! When we are always on the go, finding time to cook a healthy meal can be challenging. Try this easy Slow Cooker Pepper Beef this week and let the crock pot do the cooking for you…
Bon Appétit!
