Pepper Poppers

Submitted by Rachy3

"These pepper poppers use sweet small bell peppers instead of jalapeno peppers. It's been my experience that sometimes you can get a batch of jalapeno peppers that are excruciatingly hot and make it almost impossible to eat. With the sweet bell peppers it is delicious every time!"
