Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers
A friend from Church gave us tomatoes and jalapeno peppers a couple of weeks ago. I’ve used most of the tomatoes in salads, pico de gallo(w/ jalapeno), sandwiches, burgers, and some dishes which include Fajitas Texanas, corned beef hash, and others that I can’t recall at this moment. Now it’s time for the jalapenos to be the star. Of course, you can’t have jalapenos and not makejalapeno poppers. Stuff ’em with cheese mixture, wrap them with bacon then bake and OH MY GOODNESS. My recipe is simple and easy so just follow along with the video.
