Stuffed Jalapenos are the perfect little snack, appetizer or side. They are oh so yummy and oh so addictive.

Stuffed Jalapenos

Jalapenos! As many as you would like to make. 1 whole jalapeno will make 2 little morsels of goodness.
Cream cheese
Bacon! 1 strip per jalapeno half

Take each jalapeno and cut in half. Clean out the inside seeds and veins. It's easiest to do this under running water. Once the jalapenos are cleaned stuff each half with cream cheese and then take one whole bacon slice and wrap it around the jalapeno.

Make sure you use a whole slice per jalapeno s half otherwise when the bacon cooks up and shrinks it will unwrap itself from the jalapeno. *see below* Place the wrapped and stuffed jalapenos on a cookie sheet and bake in the oven at 400 degrees until the bacon is crispy. Enjoy

Tip* Not a fan of things that are too spicy? Remember that the older a jalapeno is the hotter it will be. If you want your jalapeno to be as mild as can be make sure you pick at the newest, shiniest, greenest, jalapeno in your grocery store. Older ones that are starting to darken in color, turn red, have puckered skin, or brown lines in them will tend to be spicier. Also removing and cleaning out the seeds and veins will help eliminate some of the spiciness as well.
