When my wife told me we were having stuffed peppers for dinner, I was less than enthused.

But then I thought, “Hey, I’ll do them on the Traeger and maybe they’ll turn out alright.”

I was dead wrong.

They were amazing!

The following is a simple and delicious recipe for Stuffed Bell Peppers that are also Keto friendly.
