Always a request for any party/ gathering im inviteded to - but only for spicey lovers - although, can easily substitude green peppers in place of jalepenos for those of you who cant handle the heat!! They go fast, so i usually make a double batch. Ingredients:
8 jalapenos |
8 ounces cream cheese (softened) |
16 slices bacon (1 pkg) |
1 1/4 teaspoons minced garlic |
1 teaspoon cumin or 1 teaspoon taco seasoning |
1/2 teaspoon oregano |
3 tablespoons fresh cilantro |
1/4 teaspoon both salt and cracked pepper |
Directions:
1. Mix Last 5 items with softened cream cheese with blender or spoon, whatever is easiest for you!
2. preheat over to 375°F.
3. Slice jalepenos in half lengthwise, and dig out the seeds and stuff in the middle (be SURE to rinse your hands after every couple jalepenos with soap and warm water - or your hands will get burned by juices).
4. Fill jalepenos, just a tad over filled with cream cheese blend (about a Tbs. each).
5. wrap with a slice of bacon and crack more fresh pepper on top of wrap, if you like.
6. Bake for 25-35 minute however crisy you like your bacon - but bacon will be cooked thruogh after 25 minutes. Can broil the last 5 min if you like as well.
