Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Slice peppers in half lengthwise and remove all seeds and ribs.
- If you want softer peppers, rub some olive or avocado oil on them and roast the halves for 10-15 minutes before stuffing them. (I didn't do this and my husband thought they could have been softer). Even easier, just bake them longer after stuffed too.
- Next up the green chile cauliflower rice. Microwave the rice for 4-5 minutes based on your microwave. Then add rice to a frying pan with green chiles, salsa and cumin. Cook until dry ish. You don't want the rice to have liquid still because that will make a soupy stuffed pepper.
- My cauliflower green chile rice looks like this:) Set the rice aside.
- Brown the ground turkey. Once browned add salsa and cook for 2-3 minutes
- Layer the green chile cauliflower rice into the peppers.
- Layer the meat over the green chile cauliflower rice. I made mine little mounds to fit all the meat in the peppers.
- Optional: Add cheese to the tops of the peppers and cook for 20-30 minutes. I let mine cook for 30 minutes until the cheese was bubbly.
- Enjoy:)
