Ingredients

1 pound bag tri-colored mini bell peppers (about 18 mini peppers)
8 ounces cream cheese , softened to room temperature
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon minced fresh dill
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
cracked black pepper , to taste
2 tablespoons Everything bagel seasoning

Instructions

Slice the mini peppers in half lengthwise and scoop out the ribs and seeds.
Make the spread. In a medium bowl, blend together the softened cream cheese, mayo, dill, chives, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper (you can do this with a handheld electric mixer, or just your arm if the cream cheese is softened enough.)
For a clean presentation, transfer filling to a plastic bag, snip off a corner, and pipe into the peppers. (Or you can certainly spread the filling into the peppers with a spoon or knife.) Sprinkle with the everything bagel seasoning.
It's best to serve these little bites ASAP. They will have the best, freshest crunch that way.
