Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Peppers

You definitely want to add these Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Peppers to your list of Whole 30 Recipes! They’re healthy, gluten free, dairy free and delicious!

It’s the 1st of March and also the first day of “Whole 30 March” on the blog! I decided to share a month of Whole 30 recipes for a few reasons. I wanted to create new healthy recipes both for the blog and for my weekly menu.

There have been several friends and followers that have requested Whole 30 recipes on the blog. And I realized that you could have buffalo sauce (certain brands, of course!) while eating Whole30 and then I was in!

I’ve never been a “diet” person but I do believe in balancing healthy, clean eating along with indulgent meals. A well rounded diet let’s you enjoy the foods you love, along with making sure you eat your peas and carrots!

The Whole 30 recipes I’ll be sharing this month are not just for those on the Whole30 diet. These recipes, like Balsamic Salmon Zoodle Bowls, Turkey Taco Salad and Chipotle Chili Sweet Potatoes, are perfect for those with gluten or dairy allergies. All of the recipes are made with real food and are free of legumes, grains, dairy and sugar.

I spent a lot of time developing recipes that fit within Whole30 compliance, but also taste great. You’ll never feel like you’re missing out on a really great homemade meal when you make these recipes!

Of course, I’m sure it’s no surprise to friends of the blog that my first recipe features buffalo chicken! Tabasco Buffalo Sauce contains Red Cayenne Pepper, Distilled Vinegar, Water, Salt and Garlic, making it totally Whole30 approved. Yay!

For this recipe, I mixed in some of my other favorite spices and veggies to make a totally flavorful dish!

How to make them

To make these Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Peppers saute onions, carrots, celery, jalapenos and garlic together. Add the ground chicken and cook through. Add buffalo sauce, diced tomatoes with green chilies, chili powder, paprika, cumin, salt and pepper.

Simmer for 5-10 minutes. Stuff the buffalo chicken mixture in bell pepper halves. Drizzle with more buffalo sauce and bake for 20 minutes.

This recipe makes 14 stuffed half peppers. Three or four is plenty for a meal. If you’re cooking for two, you can easily prep them all and bake half for dinner one night. Refrigerate the other half and bake them for another meal later in the week.

You could also double the recipe and refrigerate or freeze extra for easy meal prep!

I definitely gave these babies an extra drizzle of buffalo sauce before digging into them! I have been called the “Queen of Buffalo Sauce” and I must live up to my name! 😉
