A few years ago, we went to a restaurant for my husband’s office Christmas party. Before the meal, servers walked around with trays of appetizers. That was of course my favorite part of the night! A few of the appetizers they served were ones I had made before, but they served stuffed peppers and I knew in that first bite that I would have to come up with a recipe for them. The crunch and the refreshing taste made it so that I wanted to be able to serve it at my own functions.
The first few times I tried, I added all kinds of ingredients and made things unnecessarily complicated. When I simplified things down to the simple ingredients that I was sure had been in those mini peppers at the Christmas party, I knew that I had found my recipe. It is simple. It requires only a handful of ingredients. And it is delicious!
