My Inaugural Pinterest Recipe Attempt

So I learned this weekend that not all Pinterest recipes are crazy hard or complicated.  After seeing this breadless cheese steak recipe over and over and over again on Pinterest, I finally saved it and went shopping for the ingredients!  Pinterest can be the most "in" way to procrastinate on projects/ideas, I swear!

So long story short, I attempted this one this weekend for my lunches for the week.  It was easy and quick, always a plus!  I also made some changes to my version because I knew I could cut calories, mission accomplished!

I'd recommend trying it out (see the link for the original recipe and the details of cook prep/time/temp).

Well worth it, in my opinion, at 162 calories/7 carbs/4 WW PointsPlus 



Philly Cheese Steak Stuffed Bell Peppers
Made some slight changes to the original that I came across via Pinterest which lightened up the recipe—dropped the butter and opted for the Sargento Ultra Thin cheese.  After tasting the final product I think it was for the best.  The only other thing I would like to change/try for the next time would be to use a Cubanelle pepper to spice it up a bit.
