So fresh and delicious!
What would be a good substitute for the mango? Sometimes they are hard to find. I really want to make these. I love those little peppers and sometimes just get them for snacks.
I wanted to ask the same question. I’m thinking maybe peaches?
I cooked my peppers in the air fryer, at 340° For 3 minutes for the smaller ones, 4 minutes for the larger ones shaking half way through. I took them to an afternoon event and everybody loved him!
I like the flavor of roasted peppers. Do you suggest roasting whole and then slicing of the tops and removing the seeds to fill? Do they sort of collapse when roasting and end up harder to fill than steamed peppers?
Do you eat these hot or just roast and eat them when they’re cooled?
Never mind, I see it says to chill in fridge before serving.
I just made 6 of these poppers for my husband and me, scaling down the ingredients. I left the peppers raw. I didn’t have Tajin seasoning, so I added a dash each of smoked paprika and cumin. They are simply wonderful and we will definitely make them again! They’re like a perfect little handheld salad with a delicious mix of sweet and savory flavors.
