Whole30 Buffalo Stuffed Pepper

Try these Whole30 Buffalo Stuffed Peppers for a great way to love your veggies and eat them too!

With its zesty kick of flavor, Buffalo sauce is a fan favorite for Whole30ers and non-Whole30ers alike. We especially love it in this combination of ground meat and vegetables cooked inside the perfect pepper cup for an easy and delicious Whole30 meal.

This Whole30 recipe is not only gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free, and egg-free, but it’s also easily adaptable with the ground meat of your choice. Just pay attention to the note on how much oil to use. Cooking fat will need to be adjusted if you’re using lower-fat meat like poultry or higher-fat meat like pork or beef. Flexible ingredients mean this recipe is more accessible to both you and your budget.

Ingredients You Will need:

2 tbsp olive or avocado oil (if using a fattier meat like pork or beef, reduce to 1 tbsp)
1 lb ground meat of choice
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp paprika
