Mini Stuffed Peppers

I ran across these at the grocery store the other day and had.to.have.them.  

Luckily, they weren't too spendy either.  SO CUTE!!!!  They are small bell peppers - not spicey ones! I love stuffed jalapenos, but my family isn't too crazy about them.  So these are a good compromise.  And my little guy couldn't get enough of the peppers stuffed and unstuffed.  He just loved them.  I hope you will too.

Mini Stuffed Peppers

Ingredients:

6 Mini Bell Peppers (orange, red, yellow)

4 oz Cream Cheese

1 TB Chopped Bacon

1 TB BBQ Sauce

Pepper to taste

Step 1:  Rinse the peppers and cut in half lengthwise (be sure to leave the stem on - don't remove it).  Remove the seeds.

Step 2:  In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese, bacon and bbq sauce.  Taste.  Add pepper as desired.

Step 3:  With a small spoon, fill each mini bell pepper half with the cream cheese mixture and place on baking sheet.

Step 4:  Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, until hot, bubbly and starting to brown on top.

Serve as an appetizer or side dish.
