Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers Recipe

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

bacon

🥗Healthier: turkey bacon

💰Cheaper: pork belly

Turkey bacon is lower in fat and calories.

Slice each jalapeño pepper in half and scoop out the seeds and white membrane.

In a bowl, combine softened cream cheese, a generous handful of thinly sliced green onions, and one small grated garlic clove.

Add a bit of salt and pepper to the mixture and mix well.

Fill each pepper half with the cream cheese filling, adding as much as possible.

Wrap each filled pepper with bacon, ensuring the bacon covers most of the cream cheese but is only one layer thick.

Place the wrapped jalapeños on a rack and bake in a 375 degree F oven until crisp and golden.
