Ingredients

  • 1 to 2 packages cream cheese, room temperature
  • 2 cloves chopped garlic 
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped sun-dried tomatoes 
  • Chopped fresh basil leaves
  • Pinch salt
  • 10 to 25 jalapeno peppers (larger than average size will make them easier to stuff)
  • 1/2 to 1 pound thinly sliced bacon 

Directions

Preheat the oven at 425 degrees.

Combine the cream cheese, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, basil, and salt in a medium-sized bowl.  Mix the ingredients until the mixture is soft and manageable.

Slice the jalapenos in half and de-vine/remove the seeds from each pepper.  

Fill a pastry bag (or sandwich bag with a corner-cut) with the cream cheese filling.  Sqeeze the filling into each jalapeno-half and wrap the pepper with 1 strip of bacon.  Place the jalapenos on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for about 20-30 minutes or until bacon is brown and crisp. 

Now…Serve and enjoy!
