Ingredients
- 12 pieces Pickled peppers (banana peppers or small sweet peppers)
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 4 slices Cooked bacon, crumbled
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Drain the pickled peppers and gently pat them dry with paper towels. Slice each pepper lengthwise (if they aren’t already pre-sliced) and remove any seeds to create a cavity to hold the filling.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until smooth and well combined.
Step 3
Using a small spoon or piping bag, carefully stuff each pickled pepper with the cheese and bacon mixture. Ensure the filling is slightly mounded but does not spill over.
Step 4
Arrange the stuffed peppers on a serving platter. Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of extra parsley or paprika for presentation.
Step 5
Serve immediately as a chilled appetizer or refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy!
