Just lower your happiness in your empire setup, research troops early to keep your selected planets happy. Set up a protected system with all the other planet types, colonize and let them riot and rebel. Then make them surrender. Then eat your cheese.

[edit: I thought a rioting planet would rebel after some time. If this is not the case then this whole discussion is wrong.]

Slick.

Make them research colonies. Don't conquer them too fast. Let them do some research on their own. Then get some extra technology.

Burger with melted cheese and cheese sauce, anyone?
