Ingredients
- 12 mini sweet peppers
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 tbsp. dried chives
- 3 tbsp. everything bagel seasoning
Instructions
- Remove the tops of the sweet mini peppers, and slice in half, removing the seeds and ribs.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, shredded cheese, chives, and about 1 tbsp. of the everything bagel seasoning together, until well combined.
- Stuff the small peppers with the cream cheese mixture. You can do this with a spoon or place the cream cheese filling in a piping bag and cut the end off to pipe it into each pepper half.
- Sprinkle the stuffed peppers with more of the everything bagel seasoning and place in a single layer on a serving platter!
- If you’re traveling with them, cover them with plastic wrap.
Notes
The Easy Way. If you want to keep things neat, try spooning the filling into a piping bag or a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off. This will help you fill the peppers without making a mess.
Storage. Keep leftover stuffed mini peppers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Roasted Option. Would you like to serve them warm? Preheat your oven to 400°F and place the stuffed peppers on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for about 15 minutes, until the peppers are tender and the cheese is melted and golden.
