A delicious and easy appetizer perfect for parties or as a healthy snack, these st￭ bell peppers are packed with flavor and vibrant colors.
Ingredients
Scale:
4 medium bell peppers (red, yellow, or green)
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup breadcrumbs (optional for crunch)
1/4 cup additional shredded cheese for topping
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. Rinse under cold water and pat dry.
In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheese, sour cream, green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Generously fill each bell pepper with the cream cheese mixture, pressing gently to avoid air pockets.
Sprinkle breadcrumbs over the top of the st￭ peppers for added crunch. Top with additional shredded cheese if desired.
Place the st￭ peppers upright in a baking dish. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
Let the peppers cool for a few minutes before serving.
