I have always loved peppers, especially yellow and red peppers. I also love pizza and unfortunately due to medical reasons I am forced to deny myself a slice most of the time. Luckily, I get a kick out of making healthier alternatives to some of my favourite unhealthy foods. This is something I made on a whim after searching through the fridge looking for inspiration.
This is super quick and easy to make. I know the recipe says two servings, but I ended up eating everything thanks to my anti-pepper boyfriend. Well I guess it was his loss as I ate like a Queen.
Ingredients
- 1 large red/yellow bell pepper
- 1 ounce feta cheese
