Note: This recipe appears on www.southbeachdiet.com. Tacos are a delicious comfort food. These tacos are keto-friendly and gluten-free. You can enjoy tacos without the taco shells. If you stuff taco filling into raw bell peppers, they will hold together just as well and taste just as good as in a shell. Bell peppers are the ultimate low-carb vegetable because they are crunchy, colorful and add a touch of sweetness to your meals. You can use ground turkey in place of the ground beef and the tacos will be just as delicious.
