Slow-Cooker Black Bean & Brown Rice Stuffed Peppers
Few dishes smell better as they cook than these cheesy brown rice–stuffed peppers simmering gently in a pool of cinnamon- and clove-spiced tomato sauce. If you want to try a different whole grain, swap out the rice for millet. The peppers are fragile after cooking, so use tongs to gently remove them from the slow cooker.
