1 medium red pepper, uniform
½ cup frozen baby peas
1 tablespoon slivered or sliced almonds, toasted
5 cooked shrimp, peeled and deveined (about 3 ounces)
2 sprigs thyme leaves, fresh (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)

¼ teaspoon kosher salt
Nonstick vegetable spray, as needed

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

n a medium bowl, mix frozen peas, cooked shrimp that has been chopped into ½” pieces, thyme and the crumbled Veggie Pepper Jack.

Trip the top off of the red pepper, approximately ½” below the very top. Remove the seed and stems that may be inside of the hollow pepper. Stuff the pea and shrimp mixture into the hollow pepper.

Place on a baking sheet or oven safe pan. Spray quickly with vegetable oil spray. Place in oven.

Cook for 25 minutes until the Veggie Pepper Jack is melted, and the mixture inside registers 150 degrees on a meat thermometer. The Veggie Pepper Jack on top should be lightly browned and melted well.
