These Vegan Roasted Poblano Peppers are ridiculously easy to make and beyond delicious. And just a little bit spicy. These are a few of my favorite things…
They make a great side or appetizer when you’re serving Mexican food… you could even cut them into bite-size niblets and arrange on fancy toothpicks for a cocktail party! Serve with margaritas, and call it a night.
Best part? Only 3 ingredients. Poblano peppers, Daiya cheese, and Cholula hot sauce. I actually enjoyed mine with a bit of sour cream, but that’s totally optional.
Roasted Poblano Peppers (makes 4 pieces/side servings)
You really only need a few pinches of Daiya on each piece, and as for the hot sauce it depends on how hot you like it. Just remember the peppers have a bit of heat to begin with! If you find yours too hot, a bit of vegan sour cream cools it down nicely.
Ingredients:
- 2 medium/large poblano peppers
- Daiya shreds in your flavor of choice
- Hot sauce (I recommend Cholula or Sriracha)
- Sour cream, if desired
Directions:
- Cut the peppers lengthwise in half, remove the ribs and seeds and rinse well. (And whatever you do, do not touch your eyes!)
- Broil just until blackened, then rinse again- this time rubbing the burnt skin off.
- Sprinkle with Daiya and hot sauce to taste, then broil for 2-3 minutes on a cookie sheet until the cheese is melted. Serve immediately.
Enjoy!

This sounds wonderful…just gotta wait til summer cuz I can’t find organic poblanos here in VT…..bummer, cuz it’s snowing today and this looks spectacular!!!!!
I just talked to my mom and she said it was really coming down! Well, I promise to remind you about these in the summer, and in the meantime stay warm and dry! 🙂
What a grand & very tasty looking recipe! I love it! Great as appetizers too!
Sounds like the ideal snack to take the chill off of a winter day! Now I want to experiment with using all sorts of different peppers… Smart idea to switch it up a bit from the standard jalapeno popper.
Wow these look amazing, can’t to try this!!! Thanks:)
I love to fill with cream cheese and to put them on a bbq!
Wow, this looks so fresh and appetizing. Love Poblano Peppers.
