Notes

There is nothing better than chiles stuffed with eggs and cheese and deep fried - right?  Um, all the added calories and breading.  This recipe gives you all the great flavors but in a keto / non grain, not deep fried version.
Able to up the carbs in your plan - serve this with whole wheat toast.  Keeping it low carb - top with salsa and sour cream.
Doing our 21 day detox...ok, just omit the cheese/sour cream if you've already gone dairy free.
