Food Town Grilled Jalapeño Poppers

Prep: 30 mins, Cook: 30-40 mins

16 Servings

Ingredients

• cooking spray
• 8 ounces cream cheese
• 1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder
• 16 whole jalapeno peppers with stems
• 8 slices bacon, cut in half crosswise

Directions

1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
2. Mix together cream cheese, Cheddar, Parmesan, and garlic powder in a bowl until the mixture is thoroughly blended.
3. Lay jalapeño pepper on a work surface and cut a lengthwise sliver from the side of the pepper, exposing seeds and white membrane. With the handle of a teaspoon, scrape out seeds and membrane, leaving the hollow pepper. Repeat for the rest of the peppers.
4.  Stuff each pepper with cheese mixture and wrap each stuffed pepper in a half bacon slice (thin sliced bacon works best). Secure with toothpicks.
5. Grill stuffed jalapeños on a less-hot part of the grill until peppers are hot and juicy and bacon is browned, 30 to 40 minutes.
