I saw this recipe posted on familyfun.com! I used red and orange bell peppers, but I can get purple bells in the summer when I make this recipe again! Thanks for posting! Note: if preparing for adults only, I will use Spanish smoked paprika.

These were tasty little morsels! I scaled the recipe down to 2 eggs and had fun making the little sails! My DH and I both enjoyed the eggs. Thanks! Made for PRMR game.
