Chicken Fajita Stuffed Peppers- Low Carb


I came across a post one of my friends shared on Facebook the other day about Fried Cauliflower rice and I decided I really wanted Cauliflower rice of somesort. Last night basically was look in the fridge to see what I could use to whip up something with delicious Cauliflower rice! 

Here is what I came up with and DANG were they freakkkking AMAZEBALLS! If I do say so myself! 

If you are following the 2B Mindset this is a GREAT #veggiemost meal! 
Happy #TastyTuesday :)  

Chicken Fajita Stuffed Peppers

Ingredients:
2 Chicken Breasts or 2Cups shredded chicken
(I used leftover rotisserie chicken)
2Cups Riced Cauliflower*
3/4Cup diced Red Onion
2.5T Fajita Seasoning*
2t Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2/3Cup Water
1 Lime 
6 Bell Peppers

*To make your own Fajita seasoning:
4tsp Chili Powder
2tsp Paprika
1tsp Garlic
1tsp Onion powder
1tsp Oregano
1.5tsp Cumin
1/2tsp Cayenne 
dash salt 
1/2C cheese (optional)

*All I do to rice the cauliflower is just chop into small pieces and stick in my ninja and pulse it. I have heard you can add a bit of water in with it and then strain it out instead of scraping out the ninja but either works! 

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F
Heat oil in pan then add onion and saute for about 5 mins then add cauliflower and cook another 3 mins then add chicken, fajita seasoning and 2/3c water, cover then let cook another 5 mins. 
While the filling is cooking prepare your peppers. Cut off tops and take out seeds place in muffin tins or a casserole dish. 
Spoon filling evenly into each pepper top with cheese if you choose and bake 25-30 mins

Sheet Pan Eggs


Ok you guys this was game changing for me. I love to have loaded omelets and scrambled eggs for breakfast but lately (especially in the summer) I do not want to cook or spend time in the kitchen. You feel me? 

I was watching some videos on TASTY, because I have all this free time right? (not) and came across this Time Saving Sheet Pan Egg recipe. 

I thought I could totally make that into a new breakfast for 80 Day Obsession! 

So here it is! 

Enjoy! 

SHEET PAN EGGS
Serves 8
Portion Fix Count- 1R, 1G, .5t

Ingredients:
16 Eggs
8 Cups Veggies of your choice
1/2C Almond Milk or milk of choice
2-3T mixed spices if you choose or simply 
some salt and pepper
2T oil of choice ( coconut, olive oil) divided

My veggies I like:
3 Cups rough chopped Kale/Spinach
1 Cup diced bell pepper
1.5 Cups sliced mushrooms
1 Cup cauliflower
1 Cup broccoli 
.5 Cup shredded carrots 

Others to try are zucchini, onions, chard, eggplant, celery, tomatoes. 

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F
Add 1T coconut oil to skillet and add veggies, saute until tender crisp approx 5 mins
While veggies are cooking whisk eggs together add almond milk and spices and whisk well
Line cookie sheet with foil** and spread other tablespoon of oil over it or use spray
Add eggs to sheet then evenly distribute veggies over top of the eggs. 

*Note- if you want to make sure that there are enough veggies per serving you can use 1/2C or 1/2 green portion container to measure out and place eggs in 8 sections of the pan. The veggies cook down so if you tried to use the full green you will not have enough. Still counts as 1 green though!

** Lining sheet with foil is optional, it works for me to lift out eggs so that I can add my sausage on the sheet and pop back in oven (less dishes and less clean up!)

Pop in oven and bake between 15-20 mins or until eggs are firm to touch and there is no more liquid
Let cool then slice into 8 sections.
These freeze very well or will last in the fridge for about 5-6 days when stored properly. 

I am eating on Plan D for my second round of 80 Day Obsession, so my post workout meal is 2R, 1G, 1Y, 1t. I pair these omelette with 4 turkey sausage links or turkey bacon slices and have either a piece of whole grain toast or oatmeal (that I also premake on sundays and portion out for easy grab and go during the weekdays!) 

I hope you find this helpful! I would love to hear if you make these and if you use different variations! Please tag me in your social media if you make them and use  #LYPEats!
