We ventured up to Lake Tahoe for the week and the cold weather has us craving some warm meals.  These ground beef and riced cauliflower bell peppers were the perfect Mix of vegetables and protein.  Topped with some melted mozzarella these were enjoyed by the whole family.

Hey there, I'm Calvin! I am seriously interested in where my food comes from and how it is prepared. I'm a father to a growing family living in Southern California just trying to put food on our table that my wife and kids will eat without breaking the bank or spending my whole life in the kitchen
