Goat Cheese Stuffed Peppers

Meaty peppers, creamy goat cheese, and a hint of lemon is sure to be a hit at any gathering. These are easy to make and with chives or parsley as a garnish, the colors are perfect for a holiday party.

Stuffed peppers can both be delicious and an appealing appetizer. The delicate body is perfect for holding different types of fillings for a variety of finger foods. I’ve used a combination of piquillo peppers which have a beak shape, and round sweet and spicy cherry peppers.

Goat Cheese Stuffed Peppers

The piquillo pepper is from Spain and you can find them grilled and jared. You simply pull out the pepper from the jar and it’s ready to be stuffed. Quick and easy. The sweet and spicy cherry peppers I found at Trader Joe’s as a substitute for the piquillo when I couldn’t find them. These are also straight from the jar. I actually prefer the sweet and spicy cherry peppers because of their heat and they taste less like bell peppers (which I’m not a fan of).

Goat Cheese Stuffed Peppers

The cheese can be stuffed into the pepper with a piping bag or, if you don’t have one, a plastic storage bag will work perfectly. I cut off some of the length from the piquillo peppers so that they would hold less filling and would be more bite sized, but this is completely optional and would work fine without the trim. Remember to keep these chilled until ready to serve.

Hello!

Avatar for ApronWarriorI’m Carolann and I’m obsessed with food. Seriously, I live and sleep thinking about food. I’m on a mission to create doable, real food recipes
from scratch as well as living a more natural life style. I also believe that life should be celebrated and one of the best ways to do that is around a dinner table with friends and family (+ a game for some extra bits of laughter and edge of your seat competition). If you’re new here, I invite you to check out some of my favorite recipes or my story that lead me to real food.
