Ingredients:

  • 1 (8-ounce) jar roasted red bell peppers, drained
  • 1 cup diced Havarti or Swiss cheese
  • 24 water crackers
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme or oregano leaves

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Drain red peppers on paper towels to remove as much moisture as possible. Coarsely chop. Combine in medium bowl with diced cheese and mix gently.
