- 2 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 1/2 lbs ground beef (or ground chicken/turkey for a leaner option)
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for a little kick)
- 12 ounces cauliflower rice (fresh or frozen)
- 1 medium green bell pepper chopped
- 1/2 medium red or orange bell pepper chopped
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
- 2 tbsp water
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Heat 2 tablespoons of avocado oil in a large 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef, chopped onion, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Break up the meat with a spoon and cook until it's nicely browned and cooked through.
Stir in the cauliflower rice, chopped green and red/orange bell peppers, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and water. Mix everything really well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it cook for about 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the skillet. Cover again with a lid and cook for another 3-4 minutes, just until the cheese is beautifully melted and bubbly.
