- 12 jalapeño peppers, halved lengthwise, seeds and membranes removed
- 12 slices of bacon – cut in half horizontally – long and thin

- 1 tsp Fajita Seasoning
Makes 24 appetizers!
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Mix cream cheese and fajita together in a bowl.
- Fill each jalapeños half with the cheese mixture.
- Wrap each half of stuffed pepper with a 1/2 slice of bacon.
- Arrange bacon-wrapped peppers on the prepared baking sheet.
- Tip – place wrapped jalapeños on a baking rake on the baking sheet to allow the bacon to crisp underneath as well.
- Bake in the preheated oven until bacon is crispy, about 20 minutes.
- Options – add Green chiles or green inions into the Cream cheese mix
These are also perfect on the grill or smoked, as it pairs perfectly with grilled shrimp or BBQ!
