Keto Stuffed Peppers Recipe

Keto stuffed peppers are absolutely perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. And no matter what time of day, they will go down a tasty, savory treat.

Not to mention that they are ultra-simple to bake, making them faultless for any level of cooking expertise. They are also time and budget-friendly, so what are you waiting for?

To get started, procure some grass-fed ground beef (you can substitute any protein source - chicken, turkey, bison, or pork) and brown them in a frying pan with garlic and onions. Use your imagination and the stock of dried herbs in your pantry as you wish to cater to your family's spice palate.

While you are picking out the peppers, try and find similar-sized ones in different colors - red, yellow, green, and orange - not only will your keto stuffed peppers bake more evenly in the oven, your dinner will be more colorful too!

It's one thing to eat stuffed peppers on their own, on your own; however, if your favorite keto-minded friends are coming over, you will want to serve up a salad that matches the peppers in simple exquisiteness.

With a tomato salad, you cannot go wrong; even the colors complement each other. But you could also opt for a homestyle cucumber and carrot salad to lighten up the meal - be sure to squeeze an extra bit of lemon for added effect.
