These were awesome! I've made bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers with just cream cheese/cheddar and those are pretty good. This filling had superior flavor and makes it really easy to fill the jalapenos since everything is mixed together. I made a bunch and froze the extras. Upon cooking the frozen ones, the results were still excellent.

Made this recipe, but modified it for baking in the oven. In the past I have made bacon wrapped jalapenos stuffed with cream cheese, but this recipe drew my interest since the bacon is cooked, chopped up, and placed in the filling. I only had bacon, cream cheese, and cheddar cheese in the filling. I add a couple of dashes of chili powder and garlic powder to the cheese mixture as well. I lined my baking sheet with foil and set the unfilled peppers in the oven to partially cook them for about 10 minutes. Working with a kitchen towel in hand, I stuffed the peppers and returned them to the oven and baked them for 10-15 minutes. These are delicious!
