If you’re looking for a party-friendly low-carb/keto appetizer, then this is it! These peppers are so good, your friends won’t know or care that they’re void of all the carbage. Promise. I chose not to add any additional salt, but you’re more than welcome to. Just be sure to taste your mixture as you go to avoid over-salting. Actually, the cream cheese mixture is customizable, so you can add just about any seasoning your heart desires. The turkey sausage can be swapped out for pork sausage, ground beef, or even shredded chicken.
Try it out!
