LOW CARB STUFFED PEPPERS RECIPE

I love stuffed peppers. I don’t what it is about them but whenever I get a chance to have them for dinner, I’m on it. Crockpot Stuffed Peppers with uncooked rice is one of my favorite ways to make them because it’s super easy!
But when I saw my friends looking for recipes to broaden their low carb options, I knew that stuffed green peppers could be changed into a more keto stuffed peppers recipe.
So with a few tweaks, these stuffed peppers without rice fit the bill. Plus, they’re still super easy to make!

INGREDIENTS FOR LOW CARB STUFFED PEPPERS

  • 1 pound of lean ground beef or turkey
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 tsp minced garlic
  • 4-6 medium peppers (I used a variety of colors)
  • 1 medium yellow or red pepper, diced
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 5 oz tomato sauce
  • 14 oz can of diced tomatoes (reserve about 1/2 cup of liquid)

HOW TO MAKE STUFFED PEPPERS WITHOUT RICE

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Brown the ground beef (or turkey) in the minced garlic and diced onion and drain grease.
  3. In a large bowl combine the cooked meat, 3/4 cup of shredded cheese, diced pepper, tomato sauce and diced tomatoes.
  4. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Slice the tops off the pepper and scoop out the insides.
  6. Pour the reserved diced tomato juice into the bottom of an 8×8 or 9×9 baking dish.
  7. Fill each pepper with meat mixture and place in the baking dish.
  8. Sprinkle the top of each pepper with mozzarella cheese and remaining cheddar cheese.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the peppers have softened.
