Ingredients
  

4 large bell peppers (any color)

1 cup of cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup of powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1 cup strawberries, diced

1 cup blueberries

1 cup kiwi, peeled and diced

1 cup of granola (for topping)

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prep the Peppers: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. Rinse them under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

    Make the Cream Cheese Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Use a hand mixer or a whisk to blend until smooth and creamy.

      Prepare the Fruit: In a separate bowl, gently mix the diced strawberries, blueberries, and kiwi. You can leave some of the fruit whole for added texture.

        Stuff the Peppers: Carefully fill each bell pepper with a layer of the cream cheese mixture. Once filled, add a layer of mixed fruit on top, pressing gently to pack it in.

          Bake the Peppers: Place the stuffed bell peppers upright in a baking dish. If they don’t stand straight, you can slice a small amount off the bottom to level them. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the peppers are tender but still hold their shape.

            Add Final Touches: Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly. Sprinkle a generous amount of granola on top of each stuffed pepper for added crunch.

              Serve: Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and freshness. Cut each bell pepper in half for easier serving, and enjoy your colorful and flavorful stuffed fruit pizza bell peppers!
