If you've been along on this ride, you know I'm trying to live a healthy lifestyle. Partially because I want to be healthy and lose weight AND because I'm going on a trip next month and I want to look Ah-Mazing in my swimsuit! #DoNotJudge

I love food! I love all kinds of food! One thing I miss about home is the food! Tuesdays come and I want tacos but the shells aren't the healthiest choice and they are a no-go if you're following the Keto diet. I saw these Keto Chicken Quesadillas and I put it on my list for my next Taco Tuesday craving. Best.Decision.Ever!

2-4 chicken breasts or whatever meat you prefer or no meat
1 green pepper, chopped
1 red pepper, chopped
1 onion, chopped
Olive Oil
1 1/2 cups of cheddar
1 1/2 cups of mozzarella
Sour cream - if desired
​Salsa - if desired

1. Preheat oven to 350F. 
2. Cover bottom of skillet with olive oil.
3. Chop all vegetables.
4. Saute vegetables.
5. While veggies are cooking, cut meat into bite sized chunks. (If using shrimp, skip this step.)
6. Once veggies are cooked through, remove from heat.
7. Add 1 TBSP oil to skillet.
8. Cook meat all the way through.
9. While meat is cooking, mix cheddar and mozzarella in bowl.
10. Cover baking sheet with parchment paper.
11. Make preferred tortilla size circles on parchment paper.
12. Bake cheese for 5 minutes or until cheese is bubbly.
13. Let cheese cool.
14. Add veggies back to meat. Let simmer.
15. Once cheese has cooled for about 5 minutes, flip the cheese.
16. Place chicken and veggies on half of the cheese tortilla.
17. Close quesadilla and press firmly closed.
18. Bake for 2-5 minutes.
19. Remove from oven and let cool briefly.
20. Enjoy and remember to be Uniquely You!

If you're following the blog you know we're on a path to eating healthier. A friend of mine started a keto lifestyle and she posted these lasagna stuffed peppers and I just had to have the recipe and try it. As usual I had to put my own twist on it! 

I decided to use ground chicken but you can use whatever meat you like or you can go meatless. I also added onions and mushrooms. If you're not a fan of either take them out. If you are living a  keto lifestyle use 1/2 an onion rather than a whole one. My husband loves these and has requested them to be in the regular rotation. If you try these be sure to tag @UniqueDoes on Instagram or #UniqueDoes on facebook! Let's grow our community and share recipes! 

So...on to the recipe!

 6-8 Peppers - Any color will work. (I used red, yellow, and green.)
1 LB Ground chicken (optional)
1 onion - chopped
6 baby bella mushrooms - sliced (Optional)
3 TBSP Garlic - chopped
1 TBSP Seasoning Salt
1 TBSP Pepper
1 TBSP Italian Seasoning
2 TBSP Olive Oil
​1 jar of pasta sauce
1 cup Mozzarella
15 oz Ricotta Cheese

1. Preheat oven to 350 F.
2. Cut tops of peppers and clean out.
3. Bake peppers for 15-20 min.

I've been seeing so many of my friends begin or continue on their healthy eating paths. It has inspired me to take control of the eating that my household does. My husband and I have agreed to choose healthier options when we do our meal planning. So, we both scoured Pinterest for inspiration and I landed on lettuce wrapped fajitas.

This is perfect for those who are doing keto meals, vegans and vegetarians, and anyone leading a healthy lifestyle!

I did have to put my own twist on it because if I didn't it wouldn't be Unique! You can put your own twist on it to fit your eating preferences.

I made the fajita seasoning because after reading the labels I felt it was too much salt. (When you know better, you do better.)

So on the recipe!
