Ingredients
-
1 cup frozen cauliflower rice
-
1 tablespoon olive oil
-
¼ small onion, diced
-
1 clove garlic, minced
-
1 pound ground beef
-
4 medium bell peppers
-
1 medium Roma tomatoes, diced
-
¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
-
½ cup tomato sauce
-
1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf (Italian) parsley, or to taste
-
salt and ground black pepper to taste
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
-
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté cauliflower rice in the hot skillet until heated through, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
-
Heat olive oil in another large skillet over medium-low heat. Sauté onion and garlic in hot oil until soft, about 5 minutes. Add ground beef and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes.
-
While beef cooks, trim the tops of bell peppers and hollow out the insides. Use a knife to level off the bottoms of any bell peppers that don't stand mostly upright. Take care not to create a hole in the bottom (if it happens, fill pepper with loads of cheese before adding meat mixture).
-
Stir cauliflower rice, tomatoes, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, tomato sauce, and parsley into beef mixture and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.
-
Divide filling evenly among bell peppers and nestle them in a baking dish or arrange them on a sheet pan. Top with remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese.
-
Roast in the preheated oven until peppers are soft, 25 to 35 minutes.
Recipe Tips
You can use bison or lamb instead of beef.
You can also slice peppers in half lengthwise, leaving the stem on.
