At Costco I bought a bag of Mini Peppers. I don't know why. I didn't really have a plan. They just looked so pretty. I took most of the bag and roasted them with a couple of red onions for use this week in Salads and maybe a Tortilla Pizza and a few turned into this yummy, easy (Hello?! 3 ingredients), healthy appetizer well... in today's case it was lunch (I ate a few with a little green salad) Way better for you than those batter covered jalapeno poppers and prettier I think...
Shelly's Cheese and Pesto Mini Pepper Poppers (say that 3 times fast)
Mini Peppers
Cheesesticks (any flavor)
Storebought Pesto Sauce (or Homemade)
Make a small cut out in each mini pepper and pull out the seeds. Rinse and pat dry.
Stuff each pepper with about 1/3 of a cheese stick. Spoon in a 1/2 teaspoon of pesto sauce.
Bake at 400 for 30 minutes on a foil lined baking tray.
Would be an awesome appetizer for a party, game night, romantic evening under the stars (as if.) Serve leftovers for breakfast with scrambled eggs.
