    • About This Recipe

    “Some like it hot, some not so hot! These little (about 2 1/2″ x 1 1/2″ high) red peppers are just right for medium hot. They look lovely on your plate. I served them with broccoli. cauliflower, browned potatoes and lamb chops.They also come as green cherry tomatoes and are great served as an appetizeer – perhaps only an inch across & an inch high -The green ones i found were hotter than the red!”

  • “I made these with sour cream. They were medium hot, just as promised, and made for a pretty dish. The heat of the peppers themselves somewhat overwhelmed the more subtle flavor of the filing, but I did enjoy the strong pepper flavor of the roasted peppers. I would like to try them again, using cottage cheese the next time.”
