Description
Pepper Popper Dip is an easy and delicious way to enjoy “stuffed” peppers.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup cooked bacon, crumbled (or prepackaged bacon bits)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. onion powder
Instructions
- Put the oven broiler on HIGH.
- Prepare the peppers by cutting off stems, slicing in half lengthwise, and removing pith and seeds. Set aside.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine all ingredients and stir with a spoon until combined. Spread into a small baking dish. (I use a loaf pan.)
- Place the dip and the pepper halves (cut side down) onto a baking tray. Place on a shelf in the oven that you normally use for broiling. Broil until both dip and peppers have browned some and dip is heated through.
- Serve. I like to put the dip in individual ramekins. The peppers are not rigid enough to actually dip, so use a spoon to top the peppers with it.
