Tuesday {In the Kitchen}



Yesterday, my handsome hubby made the most amazing snack/appetizer. I'm telling you these are incredible and I just had to share them with you.

C recently found this recipe on Health-Bent. You must try it! I promise you won't regret it. We only altered the recipe slightly in the way that we make our homemade guacomole, so I have to give all credit to Megan Keatley who writes the Health-Bent website. If you haven't checked out this site, you should! They have fabulous paleo recipes! We've tried a number of them and a few remain our staple recipes to this day, including this new one. I highly encourage you to browse their page, especially if you are looking for some great healthy recipes!


Recipe adapted from Health-Bent:

  • 1 lb sweet baby peppers
  • 2 ripe Haas avocados
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1/2 handful cilantro, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • salt, to taste
  • 2 or 3 slices of bacon, chopped and crisped
  • 1 Tablespoon diced red onion
  • 1 diced roma tomato
Preheat your oven to 350°F.
First you will need to wash the peppers. Then cut off the stems, slice them in half lengthwise and remove the inside portion and seeds. Place them on a baking sheet and bake until tender, about 10 minutes. 
While peppers are baking, use a fork to mash together the avocados, lime juice, cilantro, onion, garlic, tomato and a good pinch of salt.
Remove the peppers from the oven, then using a small spoon to fill the peppers with guacamole. Top with bacon crumbles.
