Ingredients

  • 2 ounces goat cheese, softened
  • 2 ounces 1/3-less-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tablespoon grated red onion
  • 3/8 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 2 tablespoons red pepper jelly
  • 1 teaspoon water

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat broiler to high.

Combine first 6 ingredients in a medium bowl; stir well to combine.

Combine jelly and water in a microwave-safe bowl; microwave 30 seconds or until saucy. Drizzle evenly over peppers.
