Plnená paprika s karfiolovou ryžou (namiesto tradičnej ryže)
Stuffed Peppers with Cauliflower Rice (No Traditional Rice)

What it is
Bell peppers stuffed with a savory mixture of ground meat (typically pork and/or beef), seasoned with spices, and simmered in a light tomato sauce. This crucial modification replaces traditional rice in the stuffing with cauliflower rice.
Key ingredients
Bell peppers, ground pork/beef mix, cauliflower rice, eggs, onions, garlic, salt, pepper, paprika, crushed tomatoes, beef broth, lard/oil.
How to make it keto
Crucially, request cauliflower rice in the stuffing instead of traditional white rice. Confirm the tomato sauce is not thickened with flour or sugar. If possible, ask for the sauce to be light or on the side.
Say this to the waiter (Slovak)

Plnená Paprika: please ensure meat filling has no rice. Confirm tomato sauce is unsweetened and not thickened with flour/starch.
