Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 whole Jalapeno peppers
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 slices Cooked bacon, crumbled
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using gloves, cut each jalapeno in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes. Set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Using a small spoon, fill each jalapeno half with the cheese mixture, leveling the filling slightly above the edges of the pepper.
Place the filled jalapeno halves on the prepared baking sheet, spaced slightly apart.
Bake the jalapeno boats in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes.
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve warm. Enjoy!
