2 cups chopped cooked chicken
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
3/4 cup frozen peas
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon salt

Preheat oven to 375u00b0. For mummy eyes, cut two 1-in. circles and two 1/4-in. circles from pepper; chop remaining pepper for filling. Cut garlic crosswise into slices. Reserve 2 center slices for eyes; mince remaining garlic for filling.
