STUFFED MUCHO NACHO JALAPENO'S

My Park Seed Mucho Nacho plants that I started from seed this past winter are coming along well!  They are producing some nice, big jalapenos.  These jalapenos are great, as they are on the mild side of the heat spectrum, which makes them great for this recipe.  Yum! 


This picture was taken about 20 minutes before they were done baking!  You want to the bacon to be completely cooked and brown on the edges!

STUFFED MUCHO NACHO JALAPENOS

1 dozen Mucho Nacho jalapeno peppers or other jalapeno pepper of your choice

8-oz pkg of shredded mozerello/cheddar blend cheese

1/2 lb bacon, halved
toothpicks

Slice jalapenos lengthwise without cutting all the way through.  Remove seeds and veins.  Stuff with cheese; close back up.  Wrap a half-slice of bacon around each jalapeno and secure with a toothpick.  Bake at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes or until bacon is cooked and cheese is melted. 

This is a great party appetizer as well as an awesome side dish to go along with any dinner! 

If you have any great jalapeno pepper recipes or any other great summer recipes, I would love for you to share them here on my blog!  Thanks so much!

Happy Gardening and Cooking!
