Paleo Chorizo Stuffed Peppers
Servings: 5 stuffed peppers
Calories:
Ingredients
- 5 bell peppers any color tops sliced off and seeds removed (dice tops, minus stem for filling)
- 1 lb chicken chorizo
- 1 lb lean beef chorizo
- 1 large onion
- 2 zucchinis quartered then sliced thin
- 2 tbsp smoked paprika powder
- 2 tbsp cumin
- 1 tbsp red curry powder
- 1 tbsp turmeric
- optional- cayenne pepper and red pepper flakes to taste
Instructions
- In a heavy pan (or cast iron), brown chorizo.
- When chorizo is nicely browned, add diced onions, zucchini and diced tops of peppers to mix.
- Brown veggies.
- Taste mix.
- If too bland, add spices and mix well. Chorizo should have given off enough oil to allow for enough liquid to combine spices with. If not, add a little olive oil or water.
- Taste and add additional spices to your liking.
- In a slow cooker, add peppers.
- Pour enough water to cover 1" of the slow cooker.
- Carefully add meat and veggie mix to peppers.
- Cook on high for 2 hours, until peppers are soft.
- Serve warm.
