Slow Cooker Stuffed Pepper Soup is a great alternative to the time consuming stuffed peppers. Delicious & easy dinner that’s also a great freezer meal!

I’m not going to lie – this soup was amazing.  Slow Cooker Stuffed Pepper Soup should be put on everyone’s meal list this week!  I LOVE the taste of stuffed peppers – but…um…I’m lazy with food sometimes.  Stuffing Peppers doesn’t seem like that much fun.  I have fallen in love with Lori’s Stuffed Pepper Explosion – because 1 it’s the lazy way to make stuffed peppers and 2 because it’s delicious.  This soup?  Is another recipe that is going to show up at my house again and again and again!

Best part of the whole plan?  I made it in the slow cooker.  You guys know how much I love my slow cooker.  I did have to brown the meat first, but after that – it was slow cooker all the way.

I am always happy when a dinner comes together so easily.  Other best part about the dinner?  It’s a GREAT freezer meal.  It worked great for that (I have some more in my freezer right now!)
