Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb mini sweet peppers
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional garnish: crumbled cooked bacon, everything bagel seasoning, or hot honey

    • Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice each mini pepper in half lengthwise and remove seeds and membranes. Arrange on the baking sheet.
  • In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, cheddar, Parmesan, minced garlic, chives, smoked paprika, onion powder, and black pepper. Mix until smooth. Taste and add salt if needed.
  • Generously fill each pepper half with the cheese mixture, creating a small mound on top. Optionally, sprinkle with extra cheese or paprika.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, until peppers are tender-crisp and the filling is hot and bubbly. For more color, broil for 30-60 seconds, watching closely.
  • Let cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with extra chives, bacon, or your chosen topping. Serve warm.
