Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare Peppers:
    • Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. If needed, trim the bottoms slightly so they stand upright.
  3. Cook Meat Mixture:
    • In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.
    • Add the ground sausage and ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.
    • Add the minced garlic, diced onions, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the onions are softened.
  4. Combine Ingredients:
    • Stir in the diced tomatoes, black olives, and pepperoni pieces. Cook for another 2 minutes.
    • Remove the skillet from heat and mix in 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese and 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese.
  5. Stuff Peppers:
    • Place the bell peppers in a baking dish.
    • Spoon the meat mixture evenly into each pepper, pressing down lightly.
    • Top each stuffed pepper with additional shredded mozzarella cheese and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan.
  6. Bake:
    • Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes.
    • Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  7. Serve:
    • Let the peppers cool for a few minutes before serving.
    • Garnish with fresh basil if desired.

Tips:

  • Low-Carb Pizza Sauce: If you want extra pizza flavor, you can drizzle a bit of low-carb pizza sauce over the peppers before baking.
  • Vegetable Additions: Feel free to add other low-carb veggies to the meat mixture, like mushrooms or spinach, if you like.

Enjoy your keto-friendly stuffed peppers that are loaded with all the flavors of a supreme pizza!
