Keto Stuffed Peppers

I’ll keep it short and sweet today since it’s finally nice outside and I have big plans to plant some tomatoes 🙂

This recipe has been a staple in my house for years and I’m excited to finally be posting it! It’s super easy to make, Paleo and Keto friendly, and is loaded with veggies. Here are the easy steps:

Start by chopping off the tops and scooping out the seeds of some bell peppers. Then you place them cut-side down and bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.

While the peppers are cooking, you brown some ground beef with an onion. Once the meat is browned you add a chopped zucchini, garlic, and mushrooms.  Then you just saute the mixture until the veggies get soft.

Now this is my favorite part, you pour in a cup of store-bought marinara sauce – my secret ingredient! It’s easy to find allergy friendly marinara sauce, it’s not too expensive, and using store bought makes life so much easier 🙂

After that, scoop the filling into the bell peppers and top with a bit more marinara to keep the filling from drying out. Then, I topped mine with some dairy free mozzarella cheese but that part is totally optional.

Bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees. Serve hot with green onion for garnish.
