Ingredients & Substitutions

Mini Sweet Peppers: Any kind you want. Our local stores only carry the 3-pepper package with a mix of colors.

Cheese: This recipe uses shredded cheddar cheese and cream cheese. You want the cream cheese to be at room temperature so it's soft enough to mix.

Seasonings: A packet of ranch seasoning is used to give the cream cheese mixture some extra flavor. Do not use ranch dressing.

Buffalo Sauce: This is what gives these spicy mini stuffed peppers their heat. You can choose your favorite brand.

Sour Cream: The sour cream adds a bit of tangy flavor to the cream cheese mixture and helps give it more of a creamier texture.

Chives for garnish: optional
