Very tasty appetizer for those who like it zesty. If you get the hot Italian sausage, it will add to the heat. Ingredients:
16 small canned jalapeno peppers |
1 pound monterey jack cheese, shredded |
8 ounces hot sausage |
1-1/2 cups baking mix |
1 package shake and bake coating mix for pork |
2 eggs, beaten |
Directions:
1. Seed peppers. Stuff peppers with half the cheese and pinch closed. Combine remaining cheese with sausage, and mix well. Mix in baking mix, 1/3 at a time to sausage mixture. Divide into 16 portions. Press each portion 1/4 inch thick. Place 1 pepper on each portion and shape sausage mixture into oval around pepper, enclosing peppers completely. Roll each egg in coating mix; dip into beaten eggs and roll again in coating mix. Arrange in shallow baking dish. Bake at 325 degrees for 20 - 25 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
