    These sound yummy! I'm going to have to try this, however, I'll replace the meat with corn and black beans and use my own homemade salsa. Gotta say I've never thought of using bell peppers as "chips" but I definitely will now. Thank you!

    I make these all the time with different meats (pulled pork, fajita meat...) and almond cheese using the mini peppers. They are so good!
