When I was a kid, my mother used to make stuffed peppers all the time. It took a long time to prepare… boiling the peppers to soften them, then stuffing them with all the ingredients, baking them, and so on. This skillet meal eliminates all of the prep work! Everything is cooked in one pot, so supper is ready in no time. My kids ate it up and had no idea they were eating anything so nutritious! From now on, this baby will be on our dinner menu on a monthly basis at our home!

Is it necessary to use ground beef?

Not in the least! You may use whatever ground meat you choose as a replacement. We only recommend that you use lean beef. The reason for this is because the fattier the meat is, the more liquid/grease it releases, which may result in a more watery final dish than intended. If you’re not using lean meat, be sure to drain it completely after browning.

Is it true that the rice cauliflower becomes mushy?

The riced cauliflower turns out well when made according to the recipe’s directions. It is not mushy at all and has a wonderful texture, making it an excellent rice replacement. It’s a fantastic healthy addition to an old favorite, and it helps to make this meal guilt-free!

Ingredients for our Skillet of Healthy Stuffed Peppers:

• Beef Grain
• Tomatoes, diced, canned
• Colby Jack is a kind of cheese.
• Cauliflower Rice
• Worcestershire Sauce (Worcestershire Sauce)
• Onion, red
• Bell Peppers, Orange and Green

How to create our Skillet of Healthy Stuffed Peppers:

Brown ground beef in a pan over medium heat until it is fully cooked and no red remains; this should take approximately 10 minutes. Dice all peppers into bite-sized bits while the meat is frying. Also, dice the onion very thinly.

Add all of the peppers and onion to the beef mixture after it’s finished cooking. Cook for 6-7 minutes on medium, or until the peppers are cooked. To evenly spread heat, stir every several minutes.

Open and drain the chopped tomatoes while the peppers are cooking. To avoid the dish becoming soupy, remove as much of the liquid as feasible.

*While the meat browns, I drain the canned tomatoes into a colander and put it over a bowl. This ensures that as much liquid as possible has been removed.

Add the bag of rice cauliflower, diced tomatoes, and Worcestershire sauce after 7 minutes. Completely combine and stir. Cook for a further 3 minutes. Don’t overcook the cauliflower; you don’t want it to get too soft.

Top with cheese and broil for 2-3 minutes at 500 degrees Fahrenheit, or until melted. Don’t leave it for too long, and keep an eye on it! Every oven is different, therefore broiler timings are varied as well!

Remove the dish from the oven and serve! If desired, garnish with fresh oregano or basil for added taste.

Don’t worry if cauliflower isn’t your thing. You may use any COOKED rice instead of the riced cauliflower: brown, jasmine, basmati, and so on. It has no effect on the taste. This meal has a lot of flexibility, so it’s a hit with everyone!
