The Manmade Gourmet’s Love It or Chuck It: Pizza Stuffed Peppers

The Manmade Gourmet, Tyler Ryan and Crysty Vaughan give a keto friendly pizza stuffed pepper a whirl in this Love it or Chuck it segment

LEXINGTON SC (WOLO) – Love It or Chuck It…

You know those “viral videos” that all the home kitchen chefs pump out?  They all look good, but are they?  We put it to the test…

This time, Tyler Ryan (The Manmade Gourmet) and Crysty Vaughan went keto with a colorful and flavor packed stuff pepper.

Per usual, we tried to stick, as best we could, to the recipe that we found…Did we Love it or Chuck it?

There are only a few things you need for this one:

Here is what you need:

  • 3 large green bell peppers
  • 1 pound cooked Italian sausage
  • 1 cup pepperoni (1/2 cup quartered, 1/2 cup whole slices)
  • 1½ cup  such as Rao’s
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese divided

 

Here is how you do it:

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  2. Remove the stems from the bell pepper and slice creating two hollow pepper halves. Remove the seeds and veins from the peppers. Place in a small baking dish or cast iron skillet.
  3. In a medium size mixing bowl combine the cooked sausage, chopped pepperoni, 1 cup of the mozzarella cheese and the marinara. Stir well.
  4. Spoon the mixture into the peppers, pressing lightly so you can pack the peppers as much as you can.
  5. Top with remaining cup of mozzarella cheese.
  6. Bake 25-30 minutes until the cheese has browned and the peppers are tender.

THIS is where the inspiration came from!

Thoughts and lessons learned:

The bigger the pepper the better, greens seem to be larger more often

Other than that, the flavor was great, the recipe was easy, and clocking in at 29 grams of protein and 489 calories, it was not bad, and pretty healthy!
