When do I add bell peppers to the crock pot?

If you want them intact..I'd sautee them first and add at the last hour to warm and flavor.

Edit: I'd also add some lime zest now...and in the final hour some more lime juice and can of coconut milk and fresh basil at the last 10 mins if you have it.

I would slice them up and add them raw during the last hour of cooking. They will soften, but should still have a little bite to them. Sautéing them first *might* cause them to be too soft after an hour in the crock pot, but that's up to you!

I'd also look at the indgrediants of the trader joes simmering sauce---that might have coconut milk it (we don't have a TJ here). But some lime zest and juice is always good with the thai curries. I'm with ghost tropic here I like my thai curry with crunchy veggie (carrots onions bell peppers).
