Low Carb, Chip-less Nachos

Prepare

To begin, brown your meat in a skillet on medium-high heat. While the meat is cooking, seed and half your mini-peppers. 

Arrange the half peppers on a large sheet pan lined and greased before using.

Once meat is browned add taco seasoning and water as instructed.

Low Carb, Chip-less Nachos

Scoop taco meat into half peppers and sprinkle with shredded cheese.

Place sheet pan in a 400-degree oven of 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.

Remove from the oven and top these low carb nachos with your favorites. I am all about the sour cream and cilantro, while the hubs is all about the jalapenos and salsa๐ŸŒถ.
