Cream Cheese & Anchovy Stuffed Pickled Red Cherry Peppers are not only festive for Victoria Day, but tasty too!
My Father loved these tasty tidbits of creamy, spicy & salty delight. In fact, this was one of the only things I’ve ever seen my Father prepare in the kitchen.
The red & white colors makes this the perfect set of hors d’oeuvres for Victoria Day, Memorial Day, Canada Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, even Christmas.
Cream Cheese & Anchovy Stuffed Pickled Red Cherry Peppers:
Those of us who enjoy the combination of mellow cream cheese, anchovies and hot peppers, find this appetizer or snack to be the epitome of delicious.
It is easy to find the hot pickled cherry peppers at the supermarket, but if you pickle and preserve your own peppers, so much the better, as the flavor is much increased.
In my opinion, when you combine the cream cheese with anchovies, the taste is superb, but if you do not particularly like anchovies, it is easy to just omit the anchovies.
