Crock Pot Pepper Steak is tender and melts in your mouth . I make this dish for large winter and summer gatherings. I like to eat this beef with rice, noodles, or as a sandwich. If it is just for Andrew and I, then I will turn the leftover beef and peppers into a soup and freeze the rice for a later use.
I prefer to cook large amounts of rice in my instant pot or rice maker. It turns out perfect every single time and I don’t have to worry about undercooked or overcooked rice. If I have leftover rice I will freeze it for a quick stir fry for a quick meal.
I originally found this recipe in my Taste of Home Annual Recipes 2014 Annual Recipes Cookbook.
