Ingredients
2 large bell peppers
1 bag Green Giant Riced Veggies Cauliflower Risotto Medley
1/3 cup light/reduced-fat cream cheese
2 tbsp. plus 2 tsp. grated Parmesan cheese
2 tbsp. light whipped butter/light buttery spread
2 tsp. chopped garlic
1 tsp. onion powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
Optional topping: chopped scallions
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray an 8” X 8” baking pan with nonstick spray.
Halve bell peppers. Remove and discard seeds and stems. Place pepper halves in the pan, cut side up.
Bake until soft, 25 - 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, microwave unopened bag of Green Giant Riced Veggies Cauliflower Risotto Medley (standing up) for 5 - 6 minutes, or until hot.
Let stand 1 minute in the microwave. Carefully remove bag, and avoid steam when opening.
In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, 2 tbsp. Parm, butter, garlic, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until mostly smooth and uniform.
Transfer microwaved veggie medley to the bowl. Stir until cream cheese mixture has coated the veggies. Cover to keep warm.
Blot away excess moisture from bell pepper halves. Fill with risotto mixture, and top with remaining 2 tsp. Parm.
