Cheesy Balsamic Stuffed Mini Peppers – Keto Allergy KISS Day 3
Jump to recipe

Low carb keto Cheesy Tarragon and Balsamic Stuffed Mini Peppers are another quick and easy (KISS) meal for anyone following a low carb lifestyle. They’re perfect for Induction plans where carbs are kept super low and for allergy rotation/elimination plans where you also have to keep ingredients very simple and minimal. Fluffy Chix Cook demonstrates how to produce a comfort food meal while still keeping things KISS (keep it simple sweetie). Keto KISS meals are perfect weeknight meals because they take less than 10-15 minutes of actual hands-on-prep time.

 

 

 

 

 

Balsamic and Tarragon Stuffed Mini Peppers

 

Day 3 Beef/Dairy/Nightshade/Aster (Composite)/Fungus Day! Yippee! I have to be honest, this is Mr. Fluffy’s favorite day because he is The Beefeater and Day 3 is dedicated the one he loves…beef! hehe.

We kept things simple and just made a quick cheeseburger on iceberg for lunch (and of course, since I’m not rotating, I jazzed mine up), and then we tested the Nightshade Family for dinner. Dinner was a slightly more complex meal, BUT it was still KISS worthy. 🙂

 

 

Big Mack Attack Salad

For allergy rotations, simply and only serve burger, cheese, and lettuce with olive oil and a red wine vinegar dressing.

 

And we’re thrilled to report that he is symptom free from yesterday’s meals with zero tongue or lip swelling. Additionally, the hives be a goin’ away! Buh bye hives! They continued to dissipate yesterday and this morning are only faint red areas on the backs of both arms.

Beef or Bovid Family is an important day because this protein family includes some of the most major players in a majority of low carbers’ meal plans. Here’s a list of what’s included in the Bovid Family:

Beef, Bison and any dairy components from the milk of these animals.

That may not sound huge, but hells! That’s heavy cream, sour cream, crème fraiche, Greek yogurt, and cheeses—to the moon and back, Alice! And we were very afraid that Mr. F.’s allergies were becoming problematic for red meats. That doesn’t appear to be the case! Hallelujah! The last thing we want is for Mr. Fluffy to have issues with red meats, because it would also screw him for any Beef Family alternates!

 

Alternate Protein Families for Bovid (Beef) Family Days:
Ovis Family = lamb, mutton, sheep, and goat, all milk/dairy from those animals
Game Family = deer, elk, moose, and caribou (reindeer)

And if someone has an issue with red meats, all of those families would be suspicious and you’d need to tread very carefully to not eat any particular sub-member more than once every 4th day (or longer). Because he’s not sensitive to these families, we’re allowing him to eat a type of food more than once per 24 hour period during his rotation day. For him, it doesn’t seem to be an issue, but it might be for you—YMMV (your mileage may vary).

 

Cheesy Balsamic Tarragon Mini Peppers

 

We went all out for dinner last night and made a super simple Cheesy Balsamic Tarragon Beef Stuffed Mini Peppers-perfectly keto KISS. Ohmahgerd. So good and so dang easy. Took us only 10 minutes of hands-on-time to prep the peppers and make a quick side salad (Aster Family = most lettuces, artichokes, and sunflower seeds.) Mr. Fluffy gave it a 9 out of 10 wings up and you know he never gives 10s—except that one time in banned camp.

Balsamic Vinegar of Modena

(Click to purchase from Fluffy’s trusted Amazon partner.)

 

One note about balsamic vinegar, please. It’s important that you look for a brand with the absolute FEWEST ingredients—because cheap balsamic vinegar has many nasties in it such as HFCS, sugar, caramel color, artificial flavoring, MSG and other preservatives. You will pay more for the good stuff, but our bottle has literally lasted 2 years. Ideally balsamic vinegar should have only 1 ingredient: grape must (and for those of you eliminating molds, you should omit balsamic from the recipe below). We have to admit to making our own Fluffy rotation rule here, because although we’re staying away from dried herbs and spices, mushrooms, truffles and aged cheeses for now in an effort to see if mold is an allergy for him, we did make the exception with balsamic vinegar last night and also added coffee to our rotation—both are possible sources of mold contamination.

Oh and btw, never underestimate the power of a tasty Gouda cheese! It tasted creamy and unctuous as a cheddar cheese replacement in the Stuffed Mini Peppers!

Low Carb Big Mack Attack Salad

Easily spice up a meal by adding a simple homemade dressing and crumbled bacon!

 

FULL DISCLOSURE: I must confess I was a bad and unsupportive Fluffy. The cheeseburger piccys show a Big Mack Daddy Salad. I am apparently incapable of doing a rotation diet and taking one for the team—eating what Mr. Fluffy eats. I jazzed up my burger with Deli Deluxe American (cuz that’s how I roll), bacon bits (not part of Day 3 rotation) and also added some purple onion and quick pickle cucumber strings because I heart them so much and must have them anytime cheeseburgers are served. Our quick and healthy Thousand Island Dressing is the bomb and turns it into a Big Mack Daddy Salad. So it’s still a KISS Induction meal, but fancier than Mr. F.’s meal, and definitely not Allergy Rotation Diet approved!
