How To Make jalapeno poppers of the gods
-
Step 1To clean & prep jalapenos, leave the stem on and cut each pepper lengthwise. Then, with a spoon or paring knife, remove all seeds and veins/membranes (this is where the heat is).
-
Step 2In a large nonstick skillet, brown sausage. Remove from heat and drain fat. In a bowl, combine cream cheese and cooked (hot) sausage. The heat from the sausage will help it to incorporate with the cream cheese. When fully incorporated, spoon a generous helping of sausage-cream cheese into each jalapeno half. Place jalapenos on a foil lined cookie sheet.
-
Step 3Bake at 375 degrees for 30-45 minutes or until filling has browned slightly and peppers have become visibly softened. Remove and allow to cool for about 5 minutes - Last Step: Don't forget to share! Post a picture of your finished recipe here and on your favorite social network.
