"Have always loved stuffed peppers so no surprise I loved this one. What did surprise me was finding it was made with cauliflower rice! I was so impressed, requested the recipe and it has seen many the making since. I like using a combination of peppers which make for great presentation. Love the flavor of green peppers so always use at least one green along the the colored."

In a skillet cook beef, onions and chopped pepper until meat is almost browned about 5 – 7 minutes.
