Seriously. Everything is better with bacon. I bet bacon wrapped bacon is better than plain bacon.
Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers
I took two packages of cram cheese, and put them in my stand mixer, with 3 finely sliced green onions. Take the jalapenos, and slice them lengthwise. Remove the seeds and veins. I used a spoon at first, but the dull pressure cause the juice to explode from the pepper and burned my eyes. No fun. I switched to a sharp paring knife, which worked well.
Then, take a spoon and fill the little pepper canoes with your cream cheese/onion mixture.
Take a slab of bacon and cut it in thirds. Take on piece of bacon and wrap it around each pepper. Secure the bacon with a toothpick.
Repeat as often as you like. But I guarantee these things will fly off the plate. Make plenty. They wont last. Put the poppers on a cooling rack, on a sheet pan. Bake at 375 for 30-35 minutes, or until the bacon is the consistency you want. I prefer mine a little crisper.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool a little. Then, twist the toothpick, and gently pull it out of the pepper. Then, try to resist eating them before you make it to the party. (I’ve already had 3)
