1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1 lb bacon

Tips:

  • Choose the right peppers: For this recipe, it's best to use medium-sized jalapeño peppers that are firm and have smooth skin.
  • Wear gloves when handling peppers: Jalapeños can irritate your skin, so it's important to wear gloves when slicing and deseeding them.
  • Remove the seeds and ribs: To reduce the heat of the peppers, remove the seeds and ribs before stuffing them.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will make it easier to slice the peppers and remove the seeds and ribs.
  • Stuff the peppers evenly: When stuffing the peppers, make sure to distribute the filling evenly so that each pepper has the same amount.
  • Bake the peppers until they are tender: The peppers should be baked until they are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Serve the peppers hot: Cheese-stuffed jalapeños are best served hot, so make sure to enjoy them right out of the oven.
