Low Carb Vegetables Recipes

Ingredients:

1 tbsp butter
4 green bell peppers
1 1/2 lb ground sirloin
1/2 lb ground sausage
1 = (hot, mild, your choice)
1 small white onion, diced fine
1 oregano, to taste
1 seasoned pepper, to taste
1 fennel seed, (optional), to taste
6 roma tomatoes
2 tsp crushed garlic
1 = (or 1/2 tspn garlic powder)
6 oz fresh feta cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup grated parmesan or romano cheese
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, (optional)

Instructions:

Spray casserole dish with Pam. Cook ground sirloin and sausage at low to
medium heat, stirring often. Once meat is cooked through, drain
thoroughly. Add all butter, onions, garlic, oregano, seasoned pepper,
fennel seed and 3/4 of tomatoes. Simmer over low heat approximately 20
minutes.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cut off tops of all peppers, remove inner seeds and membranes and wash
thoroughly. Fill all peppers with meat mixture, alternating with a layer
of feta and parmesan cheeses. Place peppers into a casserole dish, side by
side, adding the remaining tomatoes to the dish (around and under the
peppers so they cook up and into the peppers.) Alternatively, you can cut
peppers in half vertically and stuff each half, making serving easier and
speeding bake-time.

Add any remaining mixture around the peppers and sprinkle all remaining
feta and parmesan cheeses on top. Add shredded mozzarella cheese if
desired for a hint of extra flavor.

Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 30 minutes or until browned and
bubbly as desired.
