Step 1: Ingredients

Bacon Wrapped Poppers

  • Jalapenos
  • Cream Cheese
  • Bacon

Stuffed Jalapeno Poppers

Add the following with the above ingredients

  • Tomato
  • Cheddar Cheese
  • Smoked Paprika
  • Salt

Step 2: Directions

Bacon Wrapped Poppers

  1. Cook your bacon and chop it up. Alternately you could use store bought real bacon pieces.
  2. Slice the Jalapenos in half long ways
  3. Use a Teaspoon or something similar to remove the seeds and veins from the Jalapeno halves
  4. Fill the hollow jalapeno with cream cheese
  5. Wrap the halved jalapenos with half a strip of bacon
  6. Secure the bacon with a toothpick if needed
  7. Place on a baking sheet

Stuffed Jalapeno Poppers

  1. Slice the Jalapeno long ways again, but instead of cutting them in half this time you just want to cut a sliver off of the jalapeno to make a boat or bathtub shaped jalapeno. These will be deeper the the jalapeno halve we used on the Bacon Wrapped Poppers
  2. Remove the seeds and veins just like above
  3. Mix the cream cheese with a couple healthy pinches of shredded cheddar
  4. Seed the tomato and dice up the meat. You don't want all the seeds and juice because it will make your mixture too thin.
  5. Add the tomato to the cheese mixture
  6. Add the bacon to the cheese mixture
  7. Add a couple sprinkles of smoked paprika and salt
  8. Mix the cheese mixture well
  9. Stuff the 'boats' with the cheese/bacon mixture and place on a baking sheet
