🧂 Ingredients

• 8 jalapeno peppers
• 4 ounces cream cheese

  softened
• 4 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons chili powder

  + extra for sprinkling
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 16 slices bacon

  (thin cut)

Instructions

• 1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• 2 Slice the jalapeno peppers in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides with a
  spoon.
• 3 Add the cream cheese, cheddar cheese and seasonings to a bowl and mix well.
• 4 Fill each jalapeno pepper half with the spicy cheese mixture. You might have
  some leftover, depending on the size of your peppers. Just distribute evenly.
• 5 Wrap each stuffed jalapeno boat with a slice of bacon. Pierce with toothpicks to
  hold the bacon in place.
• 6 Sprinkle them with extra chili powder and bake the jalapeno poppers about 20-30

  blast them with the broiler a couple of minutes at the end if you need to.
• 7 Remove from heat, cool slightly, and serve.
