These Keto Philly Cheese Steak Stuffed Peppers are the perfect way to get your Philly Cheese Steak fix without compromising your daily carbohydrate intake. The bell peppers are the perfect vessel to carry each perfectly meaty/cheesy bite. If you are a Philadelphian or Cheese Steak purist, feel free to replace the provolone with your beloved Cheez Whiz.
I’ve only been to Philadelphia once (I toted my tuba through the streets when my high school marching band marched in the Philadelphia Thanksgiving Parade). Anyways, I had three things on my list that I had to accomplish while there:
1) Run up the Rocky Steps
2) Tour Independence Hall
3) Eat an authentic Philly Cheese Steak.
The first two things were fun, but nothing will ever compare to that sandwich.
This low-carb version obviously forgoes the bread but doesn’t skimp on flavor! There’s plenty of butter that the grass-fed steak, onions, and peppers are cooked in before being added to the provolone stuffed pepper halves. Then a sprinkle of cheese on top before baking adds a crispy crust like texture that can’t be beat. You’re going to love this easy recipe!

I’m new to the Keto thing. This looks amazing. But I’m confused…it serves 4, and calorie content is 412. Is the 412 the total calorie content for all 4 or one serving? Thanks.
Nutritional info is per serving.
Just made this tonight. I added mushrooms and it was phenomenal. And it is so flavorful! Will definitely make again!
