Leanne Ely's Crock-pot Stuffed Peppers

Leanne Ely has a wonderful book, "Saving Dinner" which I recommend. This is one of them.

1-1/4 pound of extra lean ground beef (I use turkey meat)
1 8oz can tomato sauce
Salt and Pepper to taste
1/2 tsp of garlic powder
1 c. cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/4 c. onion, chopped
6 red bell peppers
2 tbsp ketchup
3 tbsp water

In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except bell peppers, ketchup, and water. Stir well.

Stuff peppers two-thirds full and place carefully in crockpot. Pour the water into the bottom of the crockpot and pour ketchup over the tops of the peppers. Cook on low 7-9 hours or on high 3-4 hours.
