Bacon wrapped Stuffed Jalapenos

These savory bites have to be one of my favorite appetizers. Mildly spicy, tangy, and lots of cheese!

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a sheet pan with foil and coat it with oil.

Cut the jalapenos in half lengthwise and use a spoon to scoop out the seeds and ribs.

In a medium bowl mix together the cream cheese, spices, and cheese.

Fill each jalapeno half with the cheese mixture. Wrap each pepper half with half a slice of bacon.

Arrange the peppers on the baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes until bacon is crispy and browned. Serve immediately.
