What You’ll Need to Make Boursin-Stuffed Mini Peppers

  • 8 to 12 mini sweet peppers (depends on their size)
  • 5.3 oz Boursin Garlic and Herb Cheese Spread
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

NOTE: The amount really depends on the size of the peppers – small peppers, you will need 12, a bit larger, only 8

How to Make These Easy Boursin-Stuffed Mini Peppers

Step 1: Start the oven

Heat your oven to 350°F. While it warms up, line a baking sheet with parchment paper, this keeps cleanup fast and easy.

Step 2: Prep the peppers

Slice each mini pepper in half lengthwise. Use your fingers or a small spoon to remove the seeds. Don’t worry about being perfect, these are meant to be easy, not fussy.

Step 3: Fill with cheese

Grab your Boursin cheese and a small spoon or butter knife. Scoop a generous dollop of cheese into each pepper half. Use just enough to fill the pepper without it spilling over.

Several halved mini bell peppers filled with a creamy cheese mixture are arranged on parchment paper and garnished with chopped fresh herbs.

Step 4: Arrange and bake

Place the filled peppers on the parchment-lined baking sheet, cheese side up. Give them a little space so they roast evenly. Bake for 15 minutes.  This is just enough time to warm the cheese and soften the peppers a bit.

Step 5: Garnish and serve

Once they’re out of the oven, sprinkle fresh chopped parsley over the top. It adds a bit of color and freshness without any extra effort.

Cozy Tips + Shortcuts

  • You can stuff the peppers earlier in the day and keep them covered in the fridge. When it’s time to eat, just pop them in the oven, and they’re ready to go.
  • If you don’t have parsley, a sprinkle of dried Italian seasoning works well too. You can also skip the garnish entirely if you want to keep things extra simple.
  • These stuffed peppers taste great warm, but they also hold up well at room temperature. That makes them a solid option for potlucks, snack boards, or anything casual.
  • If you’re feeding a group, it’s worth making a double batch. These tend to disappear fast once they’re on the table.
  • Leftover Boursin won’t go to waste. Spread it on crackers, add it to toast, or stir it into scrambled eggs for a quick upgrade.

This is one of those recipes you’ll find yourself coming back to again and again. It’s quick to pull together, easy to clean up, and somehow still feels like you did something special. When weeknights feel a little too full or you need something simple to share, these peppers show up in the best way. They’re cozy, low-effort, and just plain good.
