Healthy Stuffed Peppers Nutrition Info:

Red Bell Peppers: are low in calories and loaded with micronutrients and fiber. All varieties are great sources of vitamins A and C, potassium, and folic acid.

Bone Broth: rich in collagen, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals. I like using Vital Proteins because it’s one simple ingredient and eliminates any prep time or waste.

Deer: contains less saturated fat than most ground beef and is a great source of protein. You can use whatever, ground meat you like, I just recommend looking for leaner options!

Cauliflower: I have nothing against regular rice, I just prefer cauliflower! It’s an excellent source of vitamin C and folate and also a good source of fiber, vitamin K, phytochemicals and antioxidants, which may be helpful for preventing chronic disease.
