Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings 12 peppers

Ingredients

  • 12-18 mini peppers
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 4 oz shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 oz Monterrey Jack cheese
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tbsp cilantro chopped
  • 1/2 tsp garlic salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  2. Slice the peppers in half, hot dog style. Clean out the seeds and white membrane with a spoon. For the love of Zues, DON’T touch your eyes… or other tender areas… until you wash your hands. 😉
  3. In a bowl, mix all the cheeses, lime, cilantro, and garlic salt.
  4. Carefully (or not, they’re your peppers not mine) spoon the filling into each pepper. Be generous.
  5. Bake the peppers on a cookie sheet for 20 minutes or until melty and browned.
