This is a great recipe for a low-carb diet. I omitted the bread crumbs and used cauliflower rice instead of regular rice.

I added a layer of cooked quinoa to the bottom of the baking dish before adding the stuffed bell pepper. It made a nice crust on the bottom of the dish.

I used an egg white to help bind the meat mixture together. It worked great! The eggs gave the mixture a nice light and airy texture.

This is a good make-ahead dish. I made the stuffed green bell pepper on Sunday, and then reheated it in the oven on Tuesday.

I added a cup of cooked brown rice to the meat mixture, and it was a great addition. The rice added a nice texture and made the dish more hearty.

Instead of blanching the green pepper before stuffing it, I put half of the cooked mixture right into the bottom of a baking dish, then placed the unblanched pepper on top, and filled the pepper with the remaining meat mixture.

I used lean ground beef and was surprised how flavorful they still were.

I used different colored bell pepper for a variety of color on the plate. Red, orange, and yellow. They looked so appetizing.

The instructions were easy to follow, and the cooking time was perfect. The stuffed green bell pepper was moist and tender, and the cheese filling was perfectly melted.

I found the cheese mixture a bit too bland for my taste. I added a bit of garlic powder and onion powder, and it really perked things up.

The stuffed green bell pepper recipe was easy to prepare and a big hit with my family. The bell pepper was cooked but still had a little bit of crunch, and the cheese filling was well seasoned.
