0
1 green onion, or 2 tbsp snipped chives
140 g goat cheese, or spreadable cream cheese
1/2 tsp hot chili-garlic sauce
1 pint vine-sweet mini bell peppers, about 8 peppers
Thinly slice green onion or snip chives. Divide cheese in half and place in 2 medium-size bowls. Add onion or chives to one bowl and chili-garlic sauce to the other. Stir each until evenly mixed. Cut peppers in half lengthwise, leaving stem on, if possible. Remove any seeds. Using a spoon, fill pepper halves with a heaping tsp (7 mL) of either onion or chili cheese mixture or pipe mixture into peppers using a piping bag fitted with a small tip. Arrange on a platter. Peppers will keep well, covered and refrigerated, at least 4 to 5 hours before serving.

We love tiny sweet peppers (not the hot ones). They're just the right size for stuffing. Look for them in the produce section of your supermarket.
