Peppers and cream cheese sandwich under 350 calories

Roasting a few peppers while the oven is on makes economical sense.  I was left with some very tasty peppers for my sandwich today.  After roasting I put the peppers into a plastic bag to 'steam', then I removed the skins.
As I was about to throw away the pepper's wrapping, I noticed something more interesting - peppers are very low in calories.  100g of red pepper is just 26 calories.  So my lunch time sandwich consisting of 25g full fat cream cheese plus the peppers/spinach came to under 350 calories.  Nice.
