Grilled Stuffed Jalapenos

Here is a great recipe for an or-derv or side item that is delicious and fun. I've made these a few times, and they are always a big hit, because they taste so good and easy to eat. This recipe can be found on cooking.Light.com, but I have included it below



Recipe:

2 slices of center cut Bacon
1/2 cup (4 oz ) Cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup (1 oz) shredded extra sharp cheddar cheese
1/4 cup minced green onions
1 tsp fresh lime juice
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1 small garlic clove, minced
14 jalapeno peppers, halved lengthwise and seeded
Cooking spray
2 Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
2 Tbsp chopped seeded tomato

Instructions:

1.Preheat grill to medium high heat
2. Cook the bacon until crisp (I find the microwave to be easiest). Crumble
3.Combine bacon, cheeses, and next 4 ingredients in a bowl, stirring until well mixed
4. Spread cheese mixture into each of the pepper halves and place on grill coated with cooking spray (cheese side up). Cook peppers for 8 min or until bottoms of peppers are charred and cheese is browned
5. Sprinkle with cilantro and tomato
ENJOY!
