Ingredients
Scale
- 4 bell peppers (any color)
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup cooked and crumbled bacon (optional)
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 2 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking.
- Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds, creating a space for your delicious filling.
- Mix together the cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, crumbled bacon (if using), green onions, everything bagel seasoning, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Stuff each bell pepper generously with the creamy cheese mixture, making sure to fill them to the brim.
- Place the stuffed peppers upright in a baking dish and cover them with a sheet of foil to lock in the moisture.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, then remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10-15 minutes until the peppers are tender and the cheese is bubbly and golden.
- Let the stuffed peppers cool for a few minutes before serving, allowing the flavors to settle and the cheese to firm up slightly.
Notes
Make sure your cream cheese is fully softened for easy mixing. Customize the stuffing with your favorite proteins or veggies.
