Think jalapeno poppers but healthier and you control the heat. I wanted to keep it light and vegetarian but feel free to add crumbled cooked turkey bacon to the mix, if desired.

  • For a more flavorful filling, use a combination of different cheeses, such as cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan.
  • If you don't have fresh chives, you can use dried chives or another fresh herb, such as parsley or basil.

  • Serve the mini peppers immediately, or store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
