Ingredients




12 large jalapeno peppers
5 ounces goat cheese, at room temperature
Parmesan cheese
3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled

Preparation

1 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. 2 Cut each pepper in half lengthwise. If the peppers are small, cut a third from one side in order to allow for more space to stuff them. Remove the seeds (note: the “heat” of peppers are in both the seeds and the inner ribs. If you’d like these on the mild side, remove the ribs as well).  Note: If the peppers list to one side too much, slice a bit off the bottom of each so they stay upright. 3 Fill peppers with goat cheese and sprinkle them with grated Parmesan cheese and crumbled bacon bits. 4 Place peppers on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the cheese is brown at the edges and bubbly.

About

This is a super easy appetizer that takes just minutes to prepare. If you want the poppers on the spicier side, leave in the white ribs of the peppers.
