Stuffed Green Peppers?

[Trying Hard]

Anyone know how many carbs are in stuffed green peppers?

I use ground beef with chopped onion salt, pepper, and a little bit of garlic. Topped with tomato sauce and shredded parmesan and mozzarella cheeses.

Also was wondering if I should brown the ground beef first or if I can just cook it inside the pepper.

Thanks for the help

You can put all your ingredients in Fitday and figure out the carbs, it wud depend on the size of the pepper too. I do not cook my hamburger first I put it in raw.

I would personally brown the meat, onion, and garlic together a bit first to let the flavors blend before stuffing into the pepper.

I would guess on around 3 or 4 net carbs for the pepper, plus whatever you add via tomato sauce, onion, and garlic, those could all vary a lot depending on the amounts you use...

Tomato sauce kills me carb wise (I love tomatos!). I use tomato bouillon to cook with, which gives flavor but has less carbs.
