Ingredients:

Yield:

Not-a-J ...

Units: US | Metric

1 orange bell pepper, stem intact (largest pumpkin-shaped bell pepper you can find)

Decorating suggestions

Directions:

1

Other decoration suggestions: candies-Red Hots, sprinkles, Good and Plenty, licorice; buttons, sequins, etc.
2

Cut out a door on the bell pepper's back.
3

Tricky part: carefully remove membrane, seeds.
4

Carve a face on your bell pepper. Or not. Glue on sequins or buttons, attach whole cloves. Or not. Creative license-no set rules-just a kindly reminder from ~Tasty~ to keep this craft/cooking project age appropriate.
5

Turn on the tea light and insert in the cavity of the bell pepper. Close the "door".
6

Remove tea light (and other non-edible decorations) before eating.
7

Warning to adults: don't use an actual wax candle tea light. It will burn the bell pepper and possibly burn your house down, too.
8

Preparation time is estimated.
