Came out great. I made two minor taste preference changes. I used 1/2 lb loose Italian sausage and added some Italian spice. It worked worked well with cauliflower rice. I have done this in the oven with precooked Quinoa and that works well too as a Rice substitute. I made this in an Instant Pot Duo Mini and 4 peppers fit snuggly and cooked perfectly. I let it sit for 5 minutes after 5 minutes of cooking before the quick release without an issue. Thanks for the recipe idea.
I wanted to tell you that I just decided to start using my instant pot (it has been sitting in a cupboard for years) and this was he first keto recipe I made using it. Sadly i had to use a red pepper as my local grocery store was out of green. I cut the recipe in half too as there are only two of us, but it still turned out great. Your recipe was easy to follow and tasted amazing. Even my 11 year old son approved!
