JALAPENO POPPERS

Friends couldn't stop raving about these Jalapeno Poppers that Friend Sharon made and served for the canasta group when we met at her house last week. She made a platter full and when we left there were only a few left.

There was quite a discussion about the general lack of heat (although Friend Janice ate one that she said had some heat; she wasn't complaining because she likes a little heat). Sharon says the secret is to hard boil the peppers after you "gut" the peppers of the seeds. 

I am sure my husband would have enjoyed them. I will have to make them when we have friends over the next time.



JALAPENO POPPERS

Jalapeno peppers
cream cheese, at room temperature
bacon, cut strips in fourths

Butterfly the peppers - cut down one side and open the pepper up to "gut" it of the seeds.

Bring a pot of water to boil. Add peppers and bring water back to boil. Remove, drain, and cool.

Fill the peppers with cream cheese.

Place a piece of bacon on top.  

Broil until bacon is crisp.
