Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables:

  • 4 large bell peppers
  • 1 small onion, finely diced
  • 1 can (15 ounces) diced tomatoes in their juice
  • 1 cup steamed cauliflower rice

Meat and Dairy:

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 2 cups grated cheese, split

Others:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons low-carb taco seasoning

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Bell Peppers: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. Set aside.
  2. Sauté Aromatics: In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely diced onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Cook Ground Beef: Add the lean ground beef to the skillet with the onion. Cook, breaking up the meat with a spoon, until it is browned and no longer pink.
  4. Add Seasoning and Tomatoes: Stir in 2 tablespoons of low-carb taco seasoning and the can of diced tomatoes with their juice. Mix well and let it simmer for 5 minutes to combine flavors.
  5. Incorporate Cauliflower Rice: Add the steamed cauliflower rice to the meat mixture and stir to distribute evenly. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until heated through.
  6. Stuff the Peppers: Spoon the meat and cauliflower rice mixture evenly into the hollowed bell peppers. Place the stuffed peppers upright in a baking dish.
  7. Add Cheese Topping: Sprinkle half of the grated cheese over the stuffed mixture inside the peppers. Then sprinkle the remaining cheese on top of each pepper.
  8. Bake: Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Serve: Remove from the oven and let the stuffed peppers cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm.

Notes

  • You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option.
  • For extra flavor, add chopped garlic when sautéing onions.
  • To make this recipe dairy-free, replace cheese with a vegan cheese alternative or omit it entirely.
  • Cauliflower rice can be prepared fresh by pulsing cauliflower florets in a food processor and then steaming briefly.
  • Leftover stuffed peppers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
