    Feta Stuffed Mini Peppers are so easy to make. All you need to do is place the ingredients in a food processor and whip until smooth. You can also whip by hand if you need to build up those biceps.  Cut the tops off the mini –peppers. Then, we just placed the whipped feta ricotta herbed mixture into a sealed baggie and cut the tip off so that we could just pipe the stuffing mixture into the mini peppers. Bake, broil or grill and then you are done!

We used fresh chopped basil, green onions and thyme but really anything your little heart desires would be lovely in the feta stuffed mini peppers.

      5 stars
      These cute small peppers only appeared amongst my on-line vegetable offerings a few years ago . . . .sweet and crunchy they have oft disappeared from their packing ere I managed to do anything to them ! These look 'my style' tho' I do not have such a nifty holder ! Least of one's problems . . . Nice to hand around since no one should object to any of the ingredients ! Quite frankly I have not used basil and thyme together and am looking forwards to that and the pepper flakes : interesting spectrum . . . . best . . .

        Thank you Eha. These little mini peppers are so sweet and delicious. It is easy to eat them just as is but even better stuffed. We were asked to try out this holder but really do not like it because the peppers shrink when they bake and fall right through. Therefore, we just stuff them and then lay them on their sides to bake and that each technique works the best. Stay well and take care.

      This looks good, I might substitute my German quark cheese for the ricotta. I let you now how it turned out.

      This is so perfect for entertaining; however, I don't know how I could stop myself from eating them all before the guests arrived! 😉

      Love that gadget that you're using to hold the peppers! Handy. Really like this recipe, too -- those mini peppers are so cute and colorful. And the feta stuffing? Brilliant! Thanks.

        Thank you John. These little peppers are so sweet and delicious we are just just eating them right out of the bag. However, stuffing them with the cheese is really delicious too. We had some difficulty with this pepper metal gadget as when you grill the peppers they shrink and fall through the holes. We do not recommend using it to grill but it works nicely to hold the peppers upright during the piping of the cheese. Wishing you a super day.

      I love these little bites. Super light and perfect for summer time! I even have one of those popper pans for the grill. I haven't had the chance to use it on the grill. It's super hot here in AZ so I like using it to make these instead. Pinning and sharing!

        Hi there Jennifer, so glad you survived the move! Thank you dear. If you were a tad bit closer we could have a little tapas party and we could bring the feta stuffed peppers to celebrate your new life. Wishing you the best!
