Ready in: 30 mins

Ingredients

Serves: 4

• 12 medium jalapenos
• 4 ounces cream cheese
• 4 ounces finely shredded Colby/Monterrey Jack Cheese
• 2 tablespoons bacon bits

Preparation method

Prep: 15 mins | Cook: 15 mins

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Halve and seed the jalapenos, removing the stems if attached. Soak in a small bowl of water, while proceeding to next step.
3. Mix the cream cheese, shredded cheese and bacon bits in a small bowl thoroughly, until softened.
4. Drain the jalapenos. With a spoon, fill each jalapeno with the cream cheese mixture. Place the filled jalapenos on an aluminum foil-lined baking pan (you may also wish to coat the aluminum foil with a non-stick spray).
5. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 15 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool a bit before serving. Enjoy!
