Ingredients

• 24  fresh red mild cherry peppers (about 2 cups)
• 1  egg, slightly beaten
• 1/2  cup whipping cream
• 1/4  cup finely chopped fresh mushrooms
• 1  green onion, finely chopped (2 Tbsp.)
• 1/2  teaspoon Dijon-style mustard
• 1/4  teaspoon salt
• 1/8  teaspoon pepper
• 1/3  cup shredded Swiss cheese

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degree F. Cut off tops of peppers and use a small spoon to remove seeds. Place each pepper in a 1-3/4-inch muffin cup. Use a small crumpled piece of foil to keep peppers upright.

2. In a small bowl stir together egg, cream, mushrooms, onion, mustard, salt, and pepper until combined. Spoon about 1-1/2 teaspoons of the mixture into each pepper. Sprinkle tops with cheese. Bake for 15 minutes until filling is puffed and golden brown. Cool 5 minutes. Remove from pans and serve warm. Makes 24 appetizers.
