These little suckers are addicting and disappear very quickly. I think my bacon strips were too short to cut into thirds, so next time I'll cut the bacon strips in half.
Ingredients:
Fresh jalapenos, 2-3 inches in size
Cream cheese, softened
Thin (regular) bacon, sliced in thirds or in half
Directions:
Cut jalapenos in half, length-wise. With a spoon, remove the seeds and white membrane (the source of the heat; leave a little if you like things very H-O-T. Smear softened cream cheese into each jalapeno half. Wrap jalapeno with bacon piece. Secure by sticking toothpick through the middle. (At this time you can freeze them, uncooked, in a Ziploc bag for later use.)
Bake on a pan with a rack in a 375-degree oven for 20-25 minutes. You don't want the bacon to shrink so much it starts to squeeze the jalapeno. If, after 20 minutes, the bacon doesn't look brown enough, just turn on the broiler for a couple of minutes to finish it off. These are best when the jalapeno still has a bit of a bite to it.
Serve immediately, or they're also great at room temperature.

girl I made pioneer womans steak sandwich. I thought I was going to be sick for a few days. It just wasnt for me. This looks good!
I was going to tell you thank you so much for the post card. The Lord used you to give me psalm 27 four times this week! I love Him so much!! And you sent me psalm 73 a long time ago. I have gotten that one 4 times as well. Now psalm 16:11! I love him so!
I think you've managed to make jalapeno poppers even more delicious. I'll definitely be trying this soon!
These look wonderful. I'll let you know how the ones are thaqt I try on Thursday.
Illu.
PS---Papa would be proud that his garden goods were being put to good use. :-)
