Paleo Stuffed Peppers

Maybe it's because it's fall, and a good time of year for spending time in the kitchen, or maybe because my new kitchen is amazing, or perhaps it's motivating by my friend Gayle who's been paleo and eating home cooked meals for the past six week and having amazing results, but whatever it is, I am so excited to share this recipe with you.
