cheesy stuffed sweet mini peppers



Are you looking for the perfect appetizer to take along to all those upcoming holiday parties? This one is healthy, quick, and sure to be a hit!
ingredients:
  • low fat cream cheese
  • 1 - 2 tbls fresh chives (I like chives so I probably added more than needed)
  • 1 tbls fat free milk
  • 1 low fat mozzarella cheese stick (or mozzarella cheese - I just had the sticks handy)
  • about 20 sweet mini peppers
  1. Cut the tops off the peppers. Set aside.
  2. In a food processor combine cream cheese, chives, milk, cheese stick.
  3. Fill a Ziploc baggie with the cheese mixture.
  4. Cut the corner off of the baggie and squeeze mixture into each pepper.
  5. Bake at 375 for about 15 minutes.
  6. Serve immediately.

I tried these 3 different ways and liked all 3. So, if taking them to a party, here are different ways you can try.

  1. Fill with cheese and serve without cooking.
  2. Serve immediately after cooking or heat up in microwave just before serving.
  3. Cook. Let cool. Take to party and serve after cooled.
