Lasagna Stuffed Peppers

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.
