bacon wrapped stuffed jalapenos


It's possible that the only reason my neighbors smile and wave when passing me on the street is that I make these almost every time we all grill out during the summer.

BACON WRAPPED STUFFED JALAPENOS

8 jalapenos, halved (remove seeds)
8 slices of bacon, cut in half
8 oz package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (more if you like)
16 toothpicks

Soak toothpicks in cold water for a minimum of one hour.


Mix cream cheese, cheddar and Worcestershire. Spoon mixture into pepper halves and wrap in bacon (uncooked). Secure with a toothpick.

These are best when placed on the grill - but if that's not an option, place peppers on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes, or until bacon is crisp.

OH yum. Wow. Can't wait to try these. I love your recipe box blog! Can I say that I have been making a version of your hominy chili almost every week since last November?
