These Spicy Stuffed Peppers are the perfect keto friendly dinner and are healthy healthy. 

Spicy Stuffed Peppers

I picked up a bag of “Naturally Imperfect Sweet Peppers” earlier in the week and thought they would be great for my new stuffed pepper recipe.

Basically that means pepper that are not perfectly shaped = to me that means non GMO and is better.

You can also use mini sweet peppers for this recipe and make it more of an appetizer if you wish.

These spicy stuffed peppers are extremely delicious and are low carb and gluten free. Topped with Gouda Cheese and Fresh Parsley! 

Now not all wild rice mixtures are gluten free, so if you are on a gluten free diet I recommend the brand I use in the ingredients section.

Full of feel good fiber and protein, you and your family are sure to feel fully satisfied after eating this.

Each pepper is filled with pre-cooked black beans, wild rice mixture and sweet ghost pepper naturally smoked bacon.Spicy Stuffed Peppers

The sweet ghost pepper bacon is what gives the recipe it’s sweet, spicy and smoky flavor.

Then topped with shredded gouda cheese and you will be dining good tonight!

COOKING THE PC SWEET GHOST PEPPER NATURALLY SMOKED BACON: In a large frying pan cook the bacon till crisp, you will be straining the grease out a few times.
