Crockpot Stuffed Bell Peppers (w/ optional vegetarian version) By Corey @ http://www.familyfreshmeals.com/

  I will be making these tomorrow except I plan on doing my own version. I will be posting my results and pictures on Tuesday.

Did you know that you could make these in the CROCKPOT!? 
Let me show you how…
Crockpot Stuffed Bell Peppers
 

Who doesn’t love a good stuffed pepper? But in the crockpot? EVEN better. You can easily make these Stuffed Peppers vegetarian. To save time in the morning, you could prep everything, and just stuff peppers in the morning, set the crockpot and go about your day.

Melt in your mouth good, and VERY healthy! The kids loved this one. Little D didn’t care for the pepper skins, but loved the rest.

Darryl is not the biggest pepper fan, but LOVED these. Hope you enjoy this amazingly easy recipe :) XO Corey

Tomato Basil Pasta! - No Straining, just Stirring via David Hahn on FB

Here's a dish that will Blow your MIND... Tomato Basil Pasta! - No Straining, just Stirring (Please click on pic then click SHARE so recipe saves to your timeline. You can refer back to it later!) Pasta, Tomatoes, Veggie Broth, Olive Oil, and Seasonings (details below) Throw it all in the pot, INCLUDING the uncooked Pasta, and cook! - Bring it to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. The starch leaches out of the pasta and makes a rich, warm sauce for the noodles. The other ingredients cook right along with the pasta Ingredients 12 ounces pasta (I used Linguine) 1 can (15 ounces) diced tomatoes with liquid ( I used zesty red pepper flavor) 1 large sweet onion, cut in julienne strips 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes 2 teaspoons dried oregano leaves 2 large sprigs basil, chopped 4 1/2 cups vegetable broth (regular broth and NOT low sodium) 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil Parmesan cheese for garnish Directions Place pasta, tomatoes, onion, garlic, basil, in a large stock pot. Pour in vegetable broth. Sprinkle on top the pepper flakes and oregano. Drizzle top with oil. Cover pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to a low simmer and keep covered and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes or so. Cook until almost all liquid has evaporated – I left about an inch of liquid in the bottom of the pot – but you can reduce as desired . Season to taste with salt and pepper , stirring pasta several times to distribute the liquid in the bottom of the pot. Serve garnished with Parmesan cheese. Enjoy A Healthier Happier YOU!
