I’m really excited for today’s recipe. I bought The Creamy Cauliflower Sauce Cookbook last month from Pinch of Yum when it was released. I was curious about the sauce. I mean I’d heard of mashed cauliflower, but I remember how much I disliked it when I was younger. But, being a food blogger I’m pushing myself to expand my pallet and revisit some foods I “don’t like.” The sauce is so good! You’d never know it was vegetable based. I’m so using this to sneak more veggies into my family’s diet. Mom win.
So these peppers are from Lindsay’s cookbook. They use her Creamy Cauliflower Sauce and Creamy Cauliflower Garlic Rice – both in the cookbook. I didn’t have any corn on hand, but I’m sure it would have taken these peppers to a whole other level. The rice is wonderfully creamy, the shrimp is sweet and gives great texture, but the whole package together will the red bell pepper is a wonderfully balanced bite. I couldn’t stop eating these peppers! Mike didn’t any. No joke. I hope you make these peppers ASAP and give your tummy some love.
