Vegan Baby Pea Stuffed Pepper With Pepper Jack

Makes 1 Serving(s)

Ingredients

1 medium red pepper, uniform

½ cup frozen baby peas

1 tablespoon slivered or sliced almonds, toasted

2 sprigs thyme leaves, fresh (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)

1 ounce Rice Vegan Slices Pepper Jack Flavor

1 ounce Rice Vegan Slices Pepper Jack Flavor, crumbled

¼ teaspoon kosher salt

Nonstick vegetable spray, as needed

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

In a medium sized bowl, mix frozen peas, thyme, and the crumbled 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 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 Pepper Jack is melted and the mixture inside registers 150 degrees on a meat thermometer. The Pepper Jack on top should be lightly browned and melted well.
