You guys. This recipe is one for the history books. I make these for every. single. party. Brunch? Check. Tailgating? Check. Grazing before a dinner party? Check. These peppers tick all the boxes.

Fun fact, I originally published this recipe way back in this site’s infancy. It’s one of those I’ve had in my repertoire for years and knew I wanted to post immediately.

But uh, yeah, my photos weren’t so great back then and I had no idea what I was doing. So I’ve updated the photos and refined the recipe a little so that I’m sure you can make this easily and your guests will enjoy them.

Like I said, they’re the best! Let me know what you think.

Until next time. x
