Description

If you love sausage and peppers, you’ll love this easy keto-friendly dinner.


Ingredients

Scale

2 pounds pork sausage, loose

4 green bell peppers

4 red bell peppers

8 teaspoons tomato paste

2 cups water

grated Parmesan cheese (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  2. Cut tops off peppers and set aside. Use a spoon to scrape out the seeds and membranes. Turn peppers upside down and tap sides to shake out stray seeds. Place peppers, cut sides up, in a 13x9-inch baking dish.
  3. Stuff peppers with sausage meat. Divide meat evenly among the peppers. Pour water into dish around peppers.
  4. Squeeze a teaspoon of tomato paste onto each stuffed pepper. Place tops over peppers.
  5. Bake stuffed peppers in a 375°F oven for 1 hour.
  6. Garnish each pepper with a sprinkling of grated Parmesan cheese if desired.

Notes

If you can't find loose sausage meat, you can use sausage links. Just slit open the links lengthwise and peel away the casing from the meat. Drop the meat directly into the peppers. Use 1 link per pepper.
