Paleo Deconstructed Stuffed Peppers with a Kick

Paleo Deconstructed Stuffed Peppers with a kick of banana...peppers that is! by Marla Sarris, updated February 9, 2015 Posted on March 22, 2013

If you’re like a few people I know, a long list of ingredients may scare you away from a really good recipe. DON’T LET THAT BE YOU!

I promised some friends on Facebook that I would post this recipe this week and here she is. :) These Paleo Deconstructed Stuffed Peppers with a Kick get the kick in the pants from the addition of one banana pepper.

Jeff, Dave & I were working on location in Austin during SXSW and we got back a little over a week ago but it’s been a slow process catching up on email, tax prep, client projects, photo editing and a new goal that I’ve set for myself - but I’ll have more about Austin and my new goal next week, stay tuned! :)

Today I just wanted to kick out this spicy recipe for you.

Paleo Deconstructed Stuffed Peppers with a Kick

After we came home from TX, I ran to the grocery store to fill the refrigerator with fresh fruit and veggies. After only cooking a few times while in TX, I got used to eating out and not eating as well as when we’re at home, so it took me 2-3 days to warm back up to getting back in the kitchen again. But when I did, I felt much better. I’ve always found cooking to be quite relaxing. :)

I bought all the ingredients I needed to make pork stuffed peppers but when it came down to it I was just not in the mood. So I cut the cooking time in half and did everything on the stove. If you’re looking for a quick and delicious dinner, I think you’ll enjoy this one. Also, feel free to change up the protein and use ground beef, ground bison or even ground lamb in place of the ground pork for a little change in flavor. Oh! and like I mentioned above, don’t let that list of ingredients stop you, the ingredient list is pretty small minus the herbs and seasonings. If you don’t have some, then just use salt and pepper and it’ll be just as good.
