Recently I had the opportunity to enter a Cabot Cheese recipe contest and I jumped at it. I LOVE cabot cheddar cheese and usually buy huge bricks of it from Costco. However for this recipe contest I was shipped free sharp cheddar cheeses and I have so many recipe ideas to use it.

Today I am sharing with you my keto cheesy bacon cauliflower rice stuffed peppers. These turned out so good that my husband has already asked me to make them again. The cheesy cauliflower rice tastes great on it’s own. And the whole budget friendly meal only needs 5 ingredients. Each stuffed pepper has 2.7g net carbs and 104 calories so this family recipe is a keeper for us!

See those tasty ingredients below? That’s all you need to make these keto stuffed peppers. I used colorful bell peppers, bacon, cauliflower rice, green onions and some Cabot Seriously Sharp Cheddar Cheese.

The cheesy bacon cauliflower rice is really easy to make and as I’ve already said it tastes great on it’s own. So take a bite before you stuff the peppers and see for yourself.

First thing you want to do is fry the bacon in a large skillet. When it’s done take it out but save the grease in the pan. Add the green onions and cauliflower rice and saute in the bacon grease for a couple minutes. Then add the bacon back in along with half of the Cabot cheddar cheese and mix well.

I like to precook the peppers in the microwave first to make sure they are nice and soft. So I use this microwave steamer and cooked the peppers for 4 minutes. I do this while the bacon is cooking.

Both the microwave cooked peppers and cauliflower rice should be done at the same time. Place the pepper halves in a baking dish and fill them with the stuffing. Top with more cheddar cheese and bake for 20 minutes.
