Directions
Cheese-Stuffed Anaheim Peppers, I found this delicious appetizer on another recipe site as I was looking for a way to use up the abundance of anaheim peppers I have growing in my garden I brought this to a friend’s house and it was a big hit We used serrano peppers for the red and green hot chili peppers called for in the recipe and cilantro for the fresh herb We served atop baked pita chips Prep time includes time to chill in fridge , Very nice finger food! I had to substitute Cubanelle peppers for the Anaheim simply because I couldn’t find them; and used cilantro as the herb of choice It does require several hours of chilling to get the cheese set well enough to slice neatly but that’s motivation to prep the night before! I also found that it worked well to sort of tap the pepper on the cutting board (much like you see someone ‘pack’ a cigarette before lighting!) in order to pack the cheese down to the very end of the pepper The cream cheese really mellowed out the feta nicely and the sweet Anaheim/Cubanelles was a pleasing contrast to the fiery peppers used in the filling Thanks Jenny, for a fun and festive appetizer!
