Ingredients in low carb lasagna stuffed peppers
- Bell Peppers: I like to use a variety of bell peppers - yellow, orange, red, and green. But you can use all of one color, or any combination of colors that you prefer. (Try these Supreme Pizza Stuffed Peppers)
- Tomato Sauce: For these keto lasagna stuffed peppers, I use my homemade Tomato Meat Sauce as the base. For a quicker version, you can use a jarred marinara sauce and mix in some cooked ground beef. They are also delicious made with my Pesto Marinara Sauce.
- Cheeses: For the cheeses in this recipe, I used full-fat ricotta cheese, mozzarella and parmesan.

So, I went to culinary school. I also have a chef business and a commercial kitchen. My husband and I greatly improved our health and weight from low carb. My husband's cholesterol went down 39 points and he lost 15 pounds even though he did not need to lose much. I lost 23 pounds in 20 weeks. And Peace Love and Low Carb always has the best go to recipes that stay in our rotation! I am very critical of recipes, and the chef background shines through with these two. This recipe is such a great lasagne substitute. Be sure to make their meat sauce, as it is meat heavy and thicker than just a spaghetti sauce with meat would be. Great flavors here, everyone will enjoy this meal!
