Baked Bell Peppers with Cheese
Yes, with a tweak: naturally keto. About 11g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Armenian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Colorful bell peppers (often halved) are generously stuffed with a savory medley of assorted Armenian cheeses, fresh herbs, and a hint of garlic, then baked until the peppers are tender and the cheese is melted and beautifully browned.
Key ingredients
Bell peppers, assorted Armenian cheeses (e.g., Chanakh, Lori, string cheese), fresh garlic, fresh parsley, fresh dill, olive oil, salt, black pepper.
How to make it keto
Naturally keto. Crucially, ensure no rice or other grains are added to the cheese filling.
Watch out for
Confirm that no rice, breadcrumbs, or other starchy fillers are used in the cheese mixture; some cheeses may contain anti-caking agents.
