Mexican Beef-Stuffed Peppers image

I grew up eating stuffed peppers and thought my husband would immediately love them as well. He didn't at first, but then I created this slow-cooked recipe. Because he loves fajitas and tacos, I created these peppers with all his favorite flavors tucked inside. -Nicole Sullivan, Arvada, Colorado

I was so excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed with the results. The beef filling was dry and bland, and the peppers were undercooked. I would not recommend this recipe.
