A blog of simple, easy, money, time saving and also healthy Crock-Pot recipes. A lot of these recipes are soup recipes or recipes that include soup in the ingredients. Some are sauces or one-pot meals. I worked in a Crock-Pot Factory, in Hannibal, Mo., when we first got married, on November 30, 1974. The people I worked with gave us a Crock-Pot for a wedding gift. I started using one way back then and still use one. So I've been using a Crock-Pot for over 39 years now.

3 Cups Cooked Brown Rice.

1/2 teaspoon Chili Powder (optional).
Seasoned Salt or Seasoned Salt Substitute to taste.

Cook the Ground Beef, Green Pepper, Onion and Garlic together, until meat is browned.
Season the Meat mixture well while browning.
Cook the Rice at the same time.
