LASAGNA PEPPER BOATS



Lasagna Pepper Boats image

Always looking for low-carb recipes, I was making my family lasagna and got the idea to make my lasagna in a 'green pepper boat' instead of using noodles. This tastes great even to people who love carbs! Freezes well too. If I make a smaller batch, I will freeze the leftover sauce for the next time.

CHEESE-FILLED BELL PEPPER BOATS



Cheese-Filled Bell Pepper Boats image

When the colorful allure of the many bell pepper varieties draws you in at the supermarket's produce section, try this recipe for an unusual vegetable tray. The cream cheese mixture is also wonderful on celery, on cucumber rounds, or in hollowed-out cherry tomato halves.

Yield serves 8, 3 pieces per serving

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup light tub cream cheese (about 4 ounces)
2 tablespoons shredded or grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon lime juice
11-inch-thick slice of English, or hothouse, cucumber or thin regular cucumber (cut crosswise)
2 medium bell peppers (any colors)
1/2 teaspoon chili powder

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, stir together the cream cheese, Parmesan, and lime juice. Spoon into a piping bag fitted with a wide star or round tip or a sturdy plastic bag with a bottom corner snipped off.
  • Cut the cucumber slice crosswise into 12 rounds, then cut each in half (you'll have 24 thin half-circles). Set aside.
  • Cut the bell peppers in half lengthwise, discarding the stems, ribs, and seeds. Cut each half into 6 squares. Lay the pieces with the skin side down on a serving platter.
  • Pipe about 1 teaspoon cream cheese mixture onto each square. Sprinkle with the chili powder. Stand a cucumber half-circle in the cream cheese mixture on each square.
  • Substitute small, feathery pieces of fresh dillweed for the chili powder and cucumber.
