Low Carb Stuffed Peppers



Friends?  This recipe took me no time to whip up and for a fast and easy meal, it is a true winner!

Here is what you need....

Ingredients
  • 6 medium green peppers washed and seeded
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 14.5 ounces diced tomatoes
  • 1 package of cauliflower rice
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 3/4 cup marinara sauce divided
  • Reduced Fat Cheddar/Mozzarella for sprinkling


Instructions
  • Cut tops off peppers. Hollow out inside and discard seeds. Chop half the tops and set aside.
  • In skillet, saute garlic in olive oil until fragrant. Add in chopped green peppers from tops. Cook for about five minutes.
  • Add in ground chicken and cook until browned. 
  • Mix in diced tomatoes and cauliflower along with Italian seasoning, sea salt, and onion powder. Cook another five minutes.
  • Stuff chicken mixture into each hollowed out green pepper. Top each with 1 tablespoon marinara sauce then sprinkle with the cheese. 
  • Combine the remaining marinara sauce with any liquid remaining in the pan used to cook beef mixture. Pour into an 11x7 baking dish. Place stuffed peppers on top.
  • Bake at 375°F degrees for about 20 minutes.
    Delish!  FTW!
