    Mexican food just might be my favorite.

    I get cravings on the regular for any kind of Mex, Tex Mex, or Southwestern food. It's something that I could eat every day (and sometimes do).

    Here in Texas, Tex Mex is huge. It's definitely not the authentic stuff , but rather the cheesy, saucy kind of Mexican food ... and what's not to love about that?

    Tex Mex Crock Pot Stuffed Peppers

    These Tex Mex Stuffed Peppers  are one of my all-time favorite meals!

    I love how easy this dish is to make. Plus, even though these peppers are filled with healthy ingredients, they still satisfy my Mexican food cravings 100%!

    I usually haul out my slow cooker in the fall and winter, but summer is actually a wonderful time to try these vegetarian Crock Pot Stuffed Peppers.

    You'll get to take advantage of fresh summer produce to make this recipe without heating up your kitchen.

    These yummy peppers are filled with a delicious quinoa, black bean, and corn mixture that comes together quickly.

    After that's ready, you'll pop the stuffed peppers in your slow cooker and cook them until tender. A little cheese is the finishing touch.

    I don't know about you, but I'm ready to dig into these Tex Mex Stuffed Peppers right now!

    Have fun making this recipe your own by using a different type of beans or cheese (Pepper Jack would be delish), adding black olives, or including your favorite veggies. However you make, it's sure to be a hit!

    If you have extra filling after stuffing the peppers, use it to make a delicious burrito, or reheat it and eat as-is.

    I'm so glad you liked the peppers! We eat the one pot pasta recipe at least once a week - it's fun to come up with different variations:)
