Directions
- To prep the peppers, cut the tops off and scoop the seeds out.
- Place the peppers cut side down in a microwavable dish and fill the bottom with water.
- Microwave for 5 to 6 minutes to pre-cook the peppers before stuffing.
- First, you’ll brown the ground beef, cooking all the pink out, and break the meat into small pieces as it cooks.
- Once it’s browned, discard the excess fat and moisture that’s cooked off.
- Add your onion and cook until it softens.
- Mix in garlic and cook until fragrant.
- Add your tomato paste, Italian seasoning, Black pepper, Salt, And water.
- Give it all a good mix to distribute the ingredients.
- Now bring the mixture to a boil, then simmer until water cooks off.
- Remove the pan from heat, then add in fresh or frozen cauliflower rice.
- Give it a mix, then let the mixture cool.
- Arrange the prepped peppers cut side up in a casserole dish while you wait.
- Add the cubed cheese to the meat mixture and stir well.
- Fill each pepper shell to the top with the mixture.
- If you like it extra cheesy, go ahead and top with grated or sliced cheese so it’s nice and melty on top.
- Cover with foil and bake for 30 to 40 minutes at 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Garnish with fresh basil and serve!
- Your Keto Stuffed Bell Peppers is ready!
