MINI STUFFED PEPPERS
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.

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.

- Spoon the mixture into the peppers.
- On a baking sheet sprayed with non-stick cooking spray arrange the peppers in a single layer.

- Enjoy!
Tips:
- Choose the right peppers: Mini bell peppers are the best choice for this recipe, as they are small enough to be easily stuffed and have a mild flavor that won't overpower the other ingredients.
- Prepare the peppers properly: To ensure that the peppers cook evenly, cut off the tops and scoop out the seeds and ribs.
- Make sure the stuffing is well-seasoned: The stuffing should be flavorful enough to stand up to the sweetness of the peppers. Use a combination of herbs, spices, and cheese to create a delicious filling.
- Don't overstuff the peppers: Overstuffing the peppers will make them difficult to cook evenly and may cause them to burst.
- Bake the peppers until they are tender: The peppers should be cooked until they are tender but still have a slight bite to them. Overcooking will make them mushy.
Conclusion:
Garlic and herb stuffed mini peppers are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or side dish. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be served as a main course. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that will impress your guests and leave them wanting more.
