Jalepeno Poppers (If You Must)
It’s Mother’s Day weekend so I’m going to suggest that you try not to cook anything this weekend. I’d suggest attending any barbecue you’re invited to, then kick back with a cold one and talk about your kids. But, if you feel you must be a gracious guest, put some of these together before you go. It’s easy, quick, and a great appetizer for any meal.
Jalepeno Poppers
8-10 large jalepenos 1 pkg. cream cheese 1 pkg. bacon toothpicks.
Cut peppers lenthwise. Remove seeds and vein. (If you don’t do this these babies will be hot hot hot! DON’T RUB YOUR EYES!!!!!) Fill hollow of pepper with cream cheese. Cut bacon in half. Wrap one piece around each pepper. Secure with a toothpick.
Bake in oven for 30 minutes or so at 400 degrees or so. When the bacon is cooked and the pepper softened they are done.
Have a great weekend all you mamas out there!!!

Just a quick note to say these may also be cooked on the BBQ grill, and I have cooked them in a skillet on the stove! I have also added just a little bit of apricot jelly with the cream cheese for a different flavor. Any way you cook them they are Yummy!

Thanks for the tip Chris. Apricot jelly had never occurred to me.
