Keto Punjene paprike (no rice)
Keto Stuffed Bell Peppers with Minced Meat (no rice)
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly state 'no rice' in the stuffing. About 13g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Montenegrin food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Bell peppers generously stuffed with a savory mixture of minced meat (beef/pork), onions, and spices, slow-cooked in a light tomato-based sauce. The traditional rice typically found in the stuffing is omitted for this keto-modified version.
Key ingredients
Bell peppers, ground beef/pork mix, onion, garlic, tomato paste (moderate), olive oil, spices (paprika, salt, pepper), herbs.
How to make it keto
Explicitly state 'no rice' in the stuffing. Confirm no sugar is added to the tomato sauce.
Watch out for
Rice in the stuffing (MUST omit). Excessive tomato paste/sauce, which can be high in carbs. Hidden sugars in commercially prepared tomato paste/sauce.
