Servings 5

Ingredients

  • 4 oz ½ package of cream cheese softened
  • ¼ cup old cheddar cheese grated
  • Crushed garlic or garlic salt
  • 10 jalapeno peppers halved lengthwise, stems and seeds removed
  • 5 slices bacon halved crosswise

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. If you want, you can place a rack on the cookie sheet so that the fat from the bacon drips down as it cooks.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together cream cheese, cheddar cheese and garlic or garlic salt. Add other seasonings if desired.
  3. Fill each jalapeno half with a generous amount of softened cream cheese.
  4. Wrap a ½ slice of bacon around each jalapeno popper, keeping the ends crossed underneath.
  5. Place on cookie sheet or rack.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until bacon is done to your preference.
