Mini Stuffed Peppers

"Colorful bites full of flavor. These stuffed peppers make an ideal snack for the family or a get-together as a pretty finger food everyone can dip and eat! This stuffed pepper recipe has some of my beef barbacoa in each pepper, which gives you nutrients like iron and protein with the small portion size limiting the fat and calorie content. You round out the dish with some cheese and your choice of nutrient-dense guacamole and/or salsa."

We stuff our mini peppers with cream cheese, shredded cheese, and taco seasoning they are to die for! It is always the biggest hit whether at a party or just a family dinner. And if you do have leftovers (which is rare), they reheat in the microwave for just a few seconds and still have a great taste and texture! Will have to try this variety next!
