Start by washing your bell peppers thoroughly. Cut them in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes. You want them sturdy enough to hold your fillings without falling apart.

Take your hummus or cream cheese and evenly spread it inside each bell pepper half. This will not only add flavor but also help hold other ingredients in place.

Layer in your choice of diced cucumbers, shredded carrots, and any other fresh vegetables you prefer. This gives each bite a satisfying crunch and extra nutrition.

If you want a more filling sammie, scatter your diced turkey or chickpeas across the vegetables. This step is optional but highly recommended for a balanced meal.

Finally, sprinkle your choice of herbs and spices over the top. A dash of paprika or a few basil leaves can elevate the taste and presentation of your Bell Pepper Sammie.
