Recipe by Julianna Grimes Fresh squash blossoms are a lovely seasonal treat. Enjoy the contrast of crisp, fresh flowers with rich, creamy cheese spread. Be sure to use the best bacon you can find--brands that smoke with real wood offer the best flavor. A

Ingredients

1 small red bell pepper, halved and seeded 1/2 cup fat-free cream cheese, softened 3 tablespoons minced green onions 1 tablespoon canola mayonnaise 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce (such as Texas Pete) Dash of ground red pepper 2.5 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded (about 3/4 cup) 1 applewood-smoked bacon slice, cooked and crumbled 8 fresh squash blossoms

Instructions

Preheat broiler to high. Place bell pepper halves, skin sides up, on a foil-lined baking sheet, and flatten with hand. Broil 8 minutes or until blackened. Place roasted pepper in a paper bag, and fold to close bag tightly. Let stand for 5 minutes. Peel and chop bell pepper. Place 3 tablespoons bell pepper in a medium bowl; reserve remaining pepper for another use. Add cream cheese and next 6 ingredients (through bacon) to pepper in bowl, and stir until well blended. Carefully make a slit in each squash blossom; open and spoon 2 tablespoons cheese mixture into each blossom. Press to close.
