• Add green onions, minced green pepper and saute for about five minutes.
• Set onion, garlic and green pepper mixture aside.
• Brown ground turkey and cook through.
• Add onion, garlic, and green pepper mixture. Also, add diced tomatoes, parsley, italian seasoning, and season salt/blend.

• Coat a casserole dish with cooking spray.
• Cook ground sirloin and sausage in a skillet over medium-low heat until browned and crumbly, stirring often, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain thoroughly. Mix in 3/4 the tomatoes, onion, butter, garlic, oregano, fennel seed, and seasoned pepper. Simmer over low heat until meat mixture comes together, about 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Fill bell peppers with meat mixture, alternating with layers of feta cheese and Parmesan cheese. Place stuffed bell peppers side-by-side in the prepared casserole dish; add remaining tomatoes around and under the peppers so they cook up and into the peppers. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned and bubbly, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; cook peppers until just soft, 6 to 7 minutes. Drain and transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; add chicken and 1 1/2 teaspoon taco seasoning mix. Cook and stir until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 8 minutes. Chop or shred chicken and transfer to a bowl.
• Cook and stir onion and garlic in the same skillet over medium heat until tender, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Mix onion mixture, black beans, tomato sauce, and cauliflower rice into the bowl of chicken. Stir in 1 1/2 tablespoons taco seasoning. Fill the bell pepper halves with the chicken mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, 10 to 15 minutes. Top chicken mixture with Cheddar cheese and continue baking until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes more.
• Mix Greek yogurt, cilantro, lime juice, and 1/2 teaspoon taco seasoning together in a bowl; serve over stuffed peppers.

Steps:

• Cut tops out of the green peppers and remove any seeds or membranes.
• Blanch peppers for 5 minutes in salted boiling water, or you may place these in a microwave-safe pan, add 1/4 cup water, cover and cook for 5 minutes on high until softened.
• Meanwhile, brown ground meat and onion in oil, add spices.
• When meat is almost cooked through, add chopped tomato.
• When meat is cooked through, allow to cool slightly then mix in the yogurt and lemon juice.
• Place peppers in a baking pan and fill peppers with mixture and top peppers with feta and parmesan cheeses.
• Cover baking pan with lid or foil and bake at 350F for about 15 minutes.
• Remove lid or foil and cook about 10 minutes more.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add cauliflower rice and saute until heated through, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
• Heat oil in another skillet over medium-low heat. Saute onion and garlic in the hot oil until soft, about 5 minutes. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces, 5 to 7 minutes.
• While the meat cooks, trim tops off bell peppers and hollow out. Use a knife to level off the bottoms of any bell peppers that don't stand mostly upright. Take care not to create a hole in the bottom (if it happens, just fill the pepper with loads of cheese before adding the meat mixture). You can also simply slice the peppers in half lengthwise, leaving the stem on.
• Stir cauliflower rice, tomatoes, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, tomato sauce, and parsley into the beef mixture and cook 2 to 3 minutes more. Season to your liking with salt and pepper.
• Divide filling evenly among bell peppers and nestle them in a baking pan or line on a sheet pan. Top with remaining Parmesan.

• In a bowl combine all the ingredients except peppers and Parmesan cheese.
• Place the cut, cleaned peppers in a baking dish and fill the cavities with the stuffing.
• Cover with foil or a lid and place in preheated oven for 30 minutes, remove foil/lid, sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
