How to make it
- • Cook the wild rice mix according to instructions, using half the stock; plus some water if needed.
- • Put the butter or olive oil in a suitable skillet and sauté the bacon, onion & celery until the bacon is cooked but not crisp.
- • When the bacon is half cooked add the shrimp; with the garlic & other spices.
- • In a suitable bowl mix as much of the rice as you need, tomatoes, mushrooms & the contents of the skillet.
- • Stuff the peppers & garnish with paprika, parmesan cheese & cilantro. See Photo
- • Place in the crock pot, add the second cup of stock, cover & cook on LOW 8- 10 hours See Photo. HIGH 5-6 hours
- • Yes, you can bake them in the oven at 350 deg F, or 175 deg C, for 25 to 30 minutes but the crock pot will give you more flavor.
- I usually serve these with steamed corn tortillas and a fresh green salad.
