Stuffed Mini Peppers

Stuffed Mini Peppers

I have passed by the bag of sweet mini peppers in the produce section for years. I really did not know what to do with them. I could chop them up and put them in a salad. I could cut them in slices and dip them in a nice vegetable dip. But I decided to make an appetizer inspired by jalapeño poppers.


I wanted to make the filling with a little spice, but have the pepper a little sweet. It turned out delicious. My husband and I ate these for a fun afternoon snack. With football season around the corner, these would make a great appetizer to eat and watch the game.
