How to Make Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Peppers in a Slow Cooker
Cris here.
We recently tried out our low carb Crock Pot Philly Cheese Steak Meatloaf mix as a stuffed pepper and my daughter was over the moon! This is one of her favorite dishes. Now, true Philly Cheesesteak lovers need to know that this dish is inspired by the sandwich flavor– not a pepper filled with traditional cheesesteak. Although, come to think of it, that is a lovely idea too!
Low Carb Stuffed Peppers Made Easy
This recipe is super easy. The most difficult part is cutting the peppers and scooping out the seeds. You will want to cut the peppers in half (see video), cut out the stem from the tops and flip both the bottoms and tops with the the large openings facing up in our Casserole Crock (or 6 quart slow cooker).
Notes on Crock Pot Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Peppers (Low Carb)
- We are using our Crock Pot Philly Cheese Steak Meatloaf mix as the filling for these Stuffed Peppers. If you would like to make a half batch of the peppers, you could turn the other half of the filling into a small low carb meatloaf.
- We used our Casserole Crock Pot for this recipe but you can use a 6 quart slow cooker, it just may be a bit snug.
- We like to use meat thermometers like this one so we can leave it in while cooking to ensure the ground beef cooks to 165.
- When choosing your peppers, choose tall skinny peppers to make fitting them in the slow cooker easier.
- Check out all our favorite recommendations for cookbooks, slow cookers and low carb essentials in our Amazon Influencer Shop.
- You can find more low carb recipes in our Low Carb Recipe Library that we update weekly.
- As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. Your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.
- All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.

Did you add any liquid before turning on the crockpot or did the liquid you see when they are done come from the peppers themselves?
Aunt Lou says
The liquid in the picture is the cooking juices from all the ingredients. Enjoy!

Any suggestions for replacing the eggs? I have an allergy but this recipe looks fantastic!
