Stuffed Jalapeno Peppers in Pictures

[freckles]

This is by far my husband's most favorite food.

Ingredients:
15-20 Jalapeno Peppers, Various Hot Peppers (we use some local yellow peppers that are spicier than jalapenos)
6 oz Cream cheese
4 oz Cheddar cheese, shredded

In a bowl, mix cream cheese and cheddar cheese.



Put on latex gloves. Cut peppers in halves, clean out inside seeds and rinse well. Stuff peppers with cheese mixture. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes.



Let cool a few minutes. Enjoy! Yum!



Nutritional Info for entire recipe (w/20 jalapenos): 1083 calories, 93 g fat, 41 g protein, 26 g carb, 8 g fiber = 18 g net carbs

Per 5 whole peppers (10 halves): 270 calories, 23 g fat, 10 g protein, 6.5 g carb, 2 g fiber = 4.5 g net carbs

Enjoy!

Re: Stuffed Jalapeno Peppers in Pictures

yeah, they aren't so pretty till they are cooked, but when they are done, they are awesome!!

the bottoms of them get all yummy and roasted and a little brown, just *perfect*. I had seen Linda's recipe on her site, but it used bacon and it seemed a little like gratuitous use of bacon to me! I love bacon and have to really watch my intake.

If you want to make sure they are really hot be sure and leave some of the seeds in them! When I make my firecrackers I scoop out all the membrane and the seeds and then put the seeds back in the pepper with the cheese to make sure they're hot! We like ours really hot!

Re: Stuffed Jalapeno Peppers in Pictures

holy cow MOG! LOL!

I have to be really careful just cutting up the yellow peppers with ventilation, because it burns my throat when I inhale the fumes!! I must be more sensitive than you! Good gracious!

Re: Stuffed Jalapeno Peppers in Pictures

You build up a tolerance to the heat after a while! I do however wear gloves while preparing them! My hands haven't built up a tolerance, that's for sure!

Re: Stuffed Jalapeno Peppers in Pictures

Oh yea, Freckles peppers are definatley yummy looking, I'll have to save that recipe for when its not 90 degrees with 100% humidity though! Its too hot to cook in the oven here already this summer!

Re: Stuffed Jalapeno Peppers in Pictures

My poppers are in the oven right now. I made them like Linda's low carb variation



I can't wait to eat them.

Re: Stuffed Jalapeno Peppers in Pictures

So delicious. Next time I'm going to scrape less of the ribs out so they're hotter. I cooked the bacon ahead and crumbled it so i only needed to bake them for about 12 minutes. I may leave them in a few minutes longer. So good!
