Texas Jalapeno Poppers
My sister lives in Texas and this little appetizer is a delicacy down there. Every time I see her we are making these delicious jalapeno poppers. And oh how they are Yummy! The downfall to these dangerously addictive poppers is avoiding touching your eyes after making them. Twice now I have made these and touched my eyes after, leading to several tears and red eyes for the next couple hours. This is why I recommend wearing gloves when de-veining the jalapenos or resisting the urge to touch your eyes.
Ingredients
- 20 fresh jalapenos
- 2 blocks of cream cheese (softened)
- 1 lb bacon
Directions
Cut off tops of jalapenos and slice in half, length-wise. Remove seeds and veins inside the jalapenos, the veins are the source of heat so leave some white if you want spice. I would recommend wearing latex gloves when deveining and removing seeds. Spread cream cheese on each half of the jalapenos. Slice bacon in half and wrap around the jalapeno and cream cheese. Bake on a pan at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes and serve.
