INGREDIENTS
- 1 pound mini sweet peppers, halved and seeded
- 2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 425F*.
Cut each in half, remove seeds.
Place on a pan and spray/drizzle with the olive oil and salt and pepper.
Baked for 8 minutes. Then let cool.
In a large bowl, stir to combine the goat cheese, parmesan, mascarpone, garlic, bacon bits, seasoning, lemon zest and juice and black pepper.
Fill the cut peppers – you should have just enough filling to fill the peppers with a generous amount, coming slightly over the tops of the peppers.
Melt butter and stir in parmesan cheese.
Sprinkle parmesan mixture over the top of each pepper.
Roast the peppers for about 20-25 minutes, until the peppers are soft and the cheese is golden on the edges.
