I love goat cheese and I love mini bell peppers…so it only seems obvious to combine the two – right? This recipe is so simple, but so GOOD! The sweet peppers combine perfectly with the tangy and creamy goat cheese.
Make them as a veggie side dish to serve for dinner. I like to make a HUGE batch of them, so I can keep the leftovers in the fridge to snack on the next day. I have even been known to eat them cold. They are good no matter how you eat them.

I had some goat cheese that was garlic and herb so I made these sans the parsley. Yummy!!!!
