Loaded Stuffed Peppers

Loaded Stuffed Peppers
4 from 1 ratings
I just love loaded stuffed peppers. You can be creative and stuff with your favorite meats and vegetables (I just love peas in most of my dishes). These freeze well and you can make a variety to please the picky eaters in your family! I like to serve with a variety of bell peppers but you can select your own! These are a perfect paleo recipe when you are planning your meals for the week. Did you know – you can even prepare these in the slow cooker..
