Keto Hungarian Stuffed Peppers
Bell peppers stuffed with a savory mixture of ground meat and cauliflower rice, offering a keto-friendly, dairy-free take on a classic Hungarian dish.
Ingredients
- 4 Bell peppers (various colors)
- about 450 g Ground beef
- 1.5 cups Cauliflower rice
- 1 medium Onion, chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1.5 cups Tomato sauce, no sugar added
- 2 tbsp Paprika
- 1 tsp Caraway seeds
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- to taste Salt and pepper
Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.
Instructions
- 1Preheat your oven to 190°C. Take the 4 bell peppers and carefully cut each one in half lengthwise. Use a spoon or your hands to remove all seeds and white membranes from the inside of each of the 8 pepper halves.
- 2In a large skillet, heat the 1 tbsp of olive oil over medium heat. Add the 1 medium chopped onion and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it softens and becomes translucent. Add the 2 cloves of minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
- 3Transfer the cooked onion and garlic from the skillet into a large bowl. Add the about 450 g of ground beef, 1.5 cups of cauliflower rice, 2 tbsp of paprika, 1 tsp of caraway seeds, and salt and pepper to taste. Use your hands to thoroughly mix all the ingredients together until they are evenly combined.
- 4Carefully spoon the prepared meat and cauliflower mixture into each of the 8 bell pepper halves, filling them generously and mounding the mixture slightly.
- 5Arrange the 8 stuffed bell pepper halves in a single layer in a baking dish large enough to hold them without crowding. Pour the 1.5 cups of no sugar added tomato sauce evenly over the stuffed peppers in the dish.
- 6Place the baking dish into the preheated oven. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the bell peppers are tender when poked with a fork and the ground beef mixture is cooked through. To ensure doneness, the internal temperature of the ground beef should reach 71°C.
