Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Cut the tops off of the peppers and scrape out the ribs and seeds.

3. 3

   Pour 1/2 cup water into the bottom of a crockpot. Place the peppers in the crockpot so they’re sitting in the water. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours. Remove lid, distribute remaining cheese over the tops of the peppers, and cover again for a few minutes to melt the cheese.
