Keto Italian Stuffed Peppers Recipes

KETO STUFFED PEPPERS RECIPE WITH GROUND BEEF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Remove the tops of the bell peppers and clean out the insides.
• In a large pan cook the onion, garlic, oil, and spices on medium heat until the onions are translucent.
• Add in the ground beef and brown all the way through. Once browned add in the cauliflower rice, tomatoes, and tomato paste. Cook for 3-5 minutes or until everything is cooked through and softened.
• Fill the peppers and then top with cheese. Bake for 20-25 minutes and then broil for 2-3, or until the cheese has browned.
• Serve warm topped with fresh parsley.

KETO STUFFED BELL PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add cauliflower rice and saute until heated through, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
• Heat oil in another skillet over medium-low heat. Saute onion and garlic in the hot oil until soft, about 5 minutes. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces, 5 to 7 minutes.
• While the meat cooks, trim tops off bell peppers and hollow out. 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, just fill the pepper with loads of cheese before adding the meat mixture). You can also simply slice the peppers in half lengthwise, leaving the stem on.
• Stir cauliflower rice, tomatoes, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, tomato sauce, and parsley into the beef mixture and cook 2 to 3 minutes more. Season to your liking with salt and pepper.
• Divide filling evenly among bell peppers and nestle them in a baking pan or line on a sheet pan. Top with remaining Parmesan.
• Roast in the preheated oven until peppers are soft, 25 to 35 minutes.
