Ingredients
1 large red pepper1 small tub of low fat cottage cheesefresh chives, just a handful!a squirt of lemon juice-----------------------------------------you can add other salad items if you wish - just chop it up fairly small and mix it in!
Directions
#1 get your pepper, give it a quick wash, remove the stalk and cut in half. Scrape out the seeds and light colored bits.

#2 Put the cottage cheese in a bowl, chop the chives up very finely and add them to the cheese. Add a small squirt of lemon juice and mix!

#3 Cram the cottage cheese into the pepper halves evenly et. voila! it's very easy and scarily delicious!

HINT - if you fancy you could line the peppers in a layer of chunky veg - such as cucumber slices or lettuce, before adding the cottage cheese.

HINT - also if you place the two halves back together once filled and wrap tightly in cling film, it will travel well and won't make a mess!

    Made this 3 times..very fast, protien and mineral rich, never would have thought of this...tastes great..wonderful alternative to a sandwich..used cucumbers to line the inside of the red pepper and the sodium content is not correct..very little sodium at all - 3/20/07
