Ingredients

4 medium bell peppers (various colors), about 600g

500g ground pork

1 medium onion, chopped, about 150g

2 cloves garlic, minced, about 6g

1 cup cooked cauliflower rice, about 150g

1/2 cup diced tomatoes, about 100g

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, about 15g

2 tablespoons olive oil, about 30ml

1 teaspoon dried oregano, about 2g

1/2 teaspoon salt, about 3g

1/4 teaspoon black pepper, about 1g

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (optional), about 50g

Cooking Instructions

Preparing the Peppers

    1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

    2. Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. Be sure to removeallseeds.

    3. If desired, parboil the bell peppers for 5 minutes to soften them slightly. This step helps them cook more evenly. Drain well.

      Preparing the Pork Filling

    4. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

    5. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

    6. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

    7. Add the ground pork to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.

    8. Stir in the cooked cauliflower rice, diced tomatoes, fresh parsley, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.

      Stuffing and Baking

    9. Spoon the pork mixture into the prepared bell peppers, packing it firmly.

    10. If using, sprinkle the tops of the stuffed peppers with shredded mozzarella cheese.

    11. Place the stuffed bell peppers in a baking dish and add about 1/2 inch of water to the bottom of the dish. This helps to steam the peppers and prevent them from drying out.

    12. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly (if using).

      Servings & Cook Time

      This recipe yields 4 servings.

      Prep time: 20 minutes

      Cook time: 40 minutes
