For the last year, my family has been living the keto lifestyle. We have come up with lots of delicious and easy keto recipes along the way. One of our favorites for when we are entertaining are these Bacon Wrapped Peppers – they are stuffed with a cream cheese filling that is similar to the filling in our Keto Stuffed Pepper recipe, which are also a hit. This is by far our favorite keto appetizer that we have tried over the last year, and I think you will love it too!
We plan to serve these, along with some of Game of Thrones inspired recipes, at our viewing party for the premiere of season 8 on April 14th!
