Chorizo Stuffed Poblanos with Avocado Cream

This weekend I made Chorizo Stuffed Poblanos with Avocado Cream.

On the weekends, when the kids are all out and about with their friends, my husband and I like to make snacky snack type dinners.

Well…honestly I like to make snacky snack dinners and he likes to eat them 😉

These would also make a great game day snack or party appetizer.

The Avocado Cream is simple to make, just light sour cream, an avocado, a bunch of cilantro, lime juice, kosher salt, and pepper go into a food processor.

How to Make Chorizo Stuffed Poblanos

Blend until smooth and store in the fridge until ready to use.

Avocado Cream

The filling starts with an onion and a pound of chorizo sausage in a skillet over medium heat.

After about 5 minutes add some garlic, corn, black beans, kosher salt and pepper.

Cook another minute or two.

You’ll let this mixture come to room temperature and then add a cup of cheese.

Stuff this delicious filling into poblano peppers that have been cut in half with the seeds and ribs removed.

After 20 minutes in a 425 degree oven, sprinkle with more cheese over top and cook an additional 5 minutes.

Some of the filling may come out, but that’s the best part!

Pick the crispy cheese and filling from the baking sheet as a little snack before devouring these cheesy stuffed poblanos 🙂
