Hummus Stuffed Peppers
Description
Hummus Stuffed Peppers use sweet mini peppers as edible vessels filled with a scoop of creamy hummus. The peppers are sliced lengthwise for easy filling, and the recipe offers flexibility to keep the pepper tops as handles or discard them. Adding minced red onion, chopped grape tomatoes, and crumbled feta on top introduces layers of texture and flavor: the sharpness of onion, the juiciness of tomato, and the salty tang of feta cheese.
This combination balances the sweetness and crispness of the peppers with the savory creaminess of the hummus and toppings. The peppers can be served as finger food at gatherings or a light snack.
Optional toppings like olive oil, balsamic drizzle, hot sauce, or fresh parsley provide ways to customize heat or garnish for added flavor and presentation.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup hummus
- 5 sweet mini peppers
- 1 TBSP red onion minced

Instructions

Notes
- For more flavor, drizzle olive oil or balsamic vinegar over stuffed peppers before serving.
- Add hot sauce or Sriracha for a spicy variation.
- Fresh chopped parsley can be used as a garnish for color and freshness.
