How to Make Creek Potatoes and Peppers in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
I can’t take credit for thinking up the idea of these amazing Crock Pot Creek Potatoes and Peppers. Cris was the one who suggested I add peppers to my Crock Pot Creek Potatoes recipe. I am so glad she did! The bell peppers add an extra pop of flavor that is delicious!
When you make your aluminum foil boat, it needs to be pretty big. If you have an extra wide roll of aluminum foil, you could probably just use one piece to make your boat. However, I had a 12 inch wide roll. To make my boat, I used two pieces (one for the bottom and one to close up the top). So you can make this recipe with whatever size of foil you have in your cabinet.
