    Is there anyway to convert this to an instant pot recipe?

    It says to divide evenly into 2 freezer bags. When you are cooking it, do you dump both bags into the slow cooker, or is it 1 bag per dinner? We have 6 people in our household if that helps.

    I made two batches of this and stuck one straight in the crockpot and the other in the freezer. I served these with rice and they were really good!! Everyone in my family ate them and loved them. Even the three year old. When I make it again I will probably beef it up with extra bell pepper, but it was delicious as is! Thank you 😊
