Method (tap to check — screen stays awake)

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove seeds. Rub peppers with a little olive oil and set aside.
  2. In a skillet, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Sauté chopped red onion and minced garlic until translucent, about 3 minutes.
  3. Add ground beef to the skillet; cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in tomato paste, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes.
  4. Mix in cauliflower rice and cook for 3-4 minutes until tender. Remove from heat and stir in crumbled feta cheese.
  5. Stuff the peppers with the beef mixture, pressing down gently. Place the stuffed peppers upright in a baking dish.
  6. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes, until peppers are tender. Drizzle with remaining olive oil before serving.
