Stuffed Jalapenos

Stuffed jalapenos are a popular choice for many, often either deep-fried or with the entire jalapeno stuffed, which can be a bit challenging. I've come up with a unique, easier twist that doesn't compromise on flavor. This dish is a fantastic addition to a football party or any gathering, and it also serves as a delectable appetizer for family get-togethers. It's a savory bite that's sure to please everyone's palate!

Serving: 4-6 people

Ingredients: 

  • 6 jalapenos
  • 6 little smokies , sliced in half lengthwise
  • 4 ounces of cream cheese
  • 6 slices of bacon

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.  
  2. Prepare the jalapenos by slicing each in half lengthwise and removing the seeds & vein. 
  3. Line a cookie sheet with foil and place jalapenos on the sheet.
  4. Spoon or pipe the cream cheese into each jalapenos. Make sure to not overstuff.  Depending on the side of the jalapenos, put about 2 teaspoons into each jalapeno.

  6. Bake the jalapenos at 375 for about 18-20 minutes or until the bacon is cooked.
