Salmon Stuffed Cherry Peppers

After some recent weight gain I've been trying to give good for me food a higher priority, these are a variation of a snack my grandfather used to make, he used hot sausage and cheese as the stuffing and pan fried them in oil and they are as good as they sound. Salmon of course is high in Omegha-3 and vitamin D and is highly regarded as being good for you.

What I Used

Jarred hot cherry peppers
packaged salmon, yes fresh would have been better and 5x more expensive
diced onion
 chopped garlic
 olive oil
 apple cider vinegar
 italian seasonings
 corn tortilla chips

Salmon Mix

I made about a 1/4 cup of ooil and vinegar mixed with the garlic and italian seasoning and let it sit whil I did the rest.
diced a small onion half
 crushed about a 1/3 cup of tortilla chips, a mortar and pestle would be nice but I don't have one and the cup and shooter worked
 crumbled the salmon and mixed everything together

The Peppers

I chose the largest peppers from the jar then cut out the stem and removed the seeds

I tried using a spoon to stuff the peppers, but it was easier to do by hand, messy but easier. now pop them in a 350f oven for 20 minutes then slide under the broiler until they start to color... serve hot or chilled
