Maria's Feta & Red Pepper Mousse

Do you have a few leftover Capia peppers and wonder what to do with them? Mix them with feta cheese and create a flavorful and tasty mousse, a real conversation starter! The mousse has a robust taste on its own, but if you want to spice it up even more, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper in the blender. If you want something milder than feta, try goat cheese or even cream cheese for a mellower taste.

Ingredients for the feta & red pepper mousse

3-4 Tragano Greek Organics Capia peppers

1 cup feta crumbles

1 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt

1/2 cup hot water

1 envelope unflavored gelatin

a pinch of cayenne pepper (optional)

Make the feta & red pepper mousse 

Put the capia peppers, feta crumbles, and sour cream in a blender.

Dilute the gelatin in the hot water and add to the blender.

Mix well until you’ll get a smooth texture.

Pour everything into a mold and put in the refrigerator overnight to settle.

Serve with pita chips or crackers.

ENJOY!
