Roasted Stuffed Sweet Peppers

These roasted stuffed sweet peppers are so delicious! They are stuffed with cream cheese, green chilis, and chicken. They make the perfect appetizer or meal and would be a great option for meal prep too. I love this recipe because it’s almost a twist on jalapeño poppers, but not spicy with an added protein.
