Score Big with 5 Mini Pepper Snack Ideas for Your Super Bowl Bash

When you’re building a Super Bowl snack table, you want two things: food that disappears fast and prep that doesn’t keep you stuck in the kitchen. Mini sweet peppers allow you deliver both. They’re crisp, naturally sweet, and perfectly sized for stuffing, scooping, and serving—no plates required. Below are five game-day ideas pulled directly from Red Sun Farms recipes, so you can mix warm-and-go options with fresh, no-cook bites and even a sweet finish.

1) Hummus & Feta Sweet Peppers (fast, fresh, no-cook)

For an effortless opener, turn mini peppers into bite-size “cups” filled with red pepper hummus and topped with crumbled feta and chives. The recipe is quick (15 minutes) and designed for easy handling: slicing the top third on a bias keeps the stem intact, making the peppers simpler to pick up and eat.

Hosting tip: Prep early and serve cool or at room temperature, ideal when oven space is at a premium.

2) Mini Pepper Poppers (the crowd-pleasing classic)

 Add some cheesy goodness to your watch party! These mini pepper poppers have a filling that combines softened cream cheese, cheddar, bacon, jalapeños, cilantro, garlic, diced tomato, and green onion, then each pepper is topped with panko and baked at 400°F for 10–12 minutes.

Hosting tip: Bake close to kickoff so the topping stays crisp and the filling is hot and creamy.

3) Tuna Avocado Stuffed Sweetpeps (protein-forward and bright)

This recipe brings a lighter, high-protein option that still feels satisfying. Tuna and avocado are mashed with olive oil, lemon juice, mustard, honey, and parsley, then mixed with red onion, diced English cucumber, and cheese before being stuffed into halved peppers.

Flexible finish: Bake at 350°F for 15–20 minutes, or serve raw and top with extra parsley for a fresher bite.

4) Grilled Sausage and Pepper Kabobs (the halftime “hearty tray”)

Experience a vibrant explosion of colors with this delightful summer grilling recipe! Savory sausage meat, sweet onions, vivid bell, and mini sweet peppers unite to create these flavorful kabobs. This recipe will take 15 minutes of prep time and about 27 minutes to cook. You will need to thread the ingredients onto metal or pre-soaked wooden skewers, creating a visually pleasing mosaic by alternating between the colorful peppers, sweet onions, sausage slices, button mushrooms, and vibrant cherry tomatoes.

Hosting tip: Chop your mini peppers and bell peppers the night before to save some prep time on the day of the big game.

5) Nutella Stuffed Caramelized Mini Peppers (the surprise dessert)

End your spread with something unexpected: sweet-and-savory mini peppers cooked briefly in a sugar-and-water mixture, chilled, then piped with a Nutella + cream cheese filling and dusted with icing sugar just before serving.

Hosting tip: Chill until game time and plate them late in the fourth quarter for a memorable finish.
