Expert Tips

  • Use a hand mixer to shred the chicken faster.
  • If you have leftover filling, serve over top of the stuffed peppers.
  • Test the filling before stuffing the peppers! If it needs more salt or spice, stir it in.
  • Top them with your favorite dairy-free cheese! (Or regular cheese if you can tolerate dairy.) Sprinkle it on before they go into the oven.
