Baked Jalapeños
I’ve made this recipe several times with varying results. It all comes down to how hot you like your jalapeño peppers when served. Boiling time is the key to removing unwanted heat!
| Ingredients: | |
| 25 medium jalapeño peppers 1 8-oz package cream cheese, softened 3 cups shredded cheddar cheese (12 oz) |
1-1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce 4 slices bacon, cooked & crumbled |
| Cooking Instructions: | |
| Cut jalapeño peppers in half lengthwise; remove seeds. Cook peppers in boiling water 5 to 10 minutes. Drain well.
Combine cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and worcestershire sauce; stir well. Place 1 heaping teaspoon cheese mixture in each pepper half; sprinkle with bacon. Place on a baking sheet. Bake at 400° for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted. |

| Additional Comments: | |
| The longer you boil the jalepeños, the milder they become. I personally boil 10-15 minutes for a milder taste.
I also recommend using gloves when slicing and removing seeds!
