Champion Jalapeño Poppers
Ingredients
  • 18 fresh jalapeno peppers, halved lengthwise and seeded
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 (5.25 ounce) package frozen vegetarian bacon strips, thawed
  • toothpicks
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a moderate heat setting of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
2
Next, take a baking sheet and lightly coat it with cooking spray to prevent food from sticking.
3
Cut each jalapeno pepper in half lengthwise and scoop out some of the seeds and membranes.
4
Fill each jalapeno half with a generous amount of cream cheese.
5
Then, wrap 1-2 slices of crispy bacon around each jalapeno half to add a smoky flavor. Secure the bacon with a toothpick to keep it in place.
6
Arrange the wrapped jalapenos on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
7
Bake the jalapenos in your preheated oven for 12 minutes, or until the bacon strips are golden brown and crispy.
8
Serve the warm jalapeno poppers immediately, garnished with additional cream cheese if desired.
