Fun-filled meal, especially for kids. But I have to admit, I like the visual on my plate too! You can adapt the filling to suit your needs, by adding any longer, eye-appealing veggie you desire. If you took out the chicken, would be nice to present at a casual dinner party. Enjoy! Note: you can use any dressing on the bottom, sometimes blue cheese isn't very kid friendly, so maybe try some ranch or your favorite homemade dressing! Ingredients:
4 red bell peppers |
1 bunch green onion |
1 bunch broccoli, cut into spears |
2 carrots, julienned into long strips |
1 cup fresh snow pea |
2 celery ribs, cut into strips (keep the leaves on) |
2 cups cooked chicken strips (any flavor) |
1/2 cup fat free blue cheese dressing |
1/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream |
2 teaspoons blue cheese, crumbled |
Directions:
1. Slice tops off of pepper, remove seeds. Slice 2 tablespoons of green onion, set aside.
2. Prepare veggies as noted above.
3. Cut the tops of the remaining green onions half way down, then cut the green portion several times in order to spray outwards.
4. Mix the salad dressing, sour cream, blue cheese and 2 tbsp green onion.
5. Place some of the dressing mix into the bottom of the red peppers.
6. Arrange veggies and chicken strips standing up inside of peppers.
7. Note: Have fun with the preparation, arrange to look like the ingredients are blooming from the pepper! Nice and colorful!
