Sausage Stuffed Jalapeno Poppers

Category: Pork, Onions, Cheese
Ingredients List
- 1 pound ground Italian sausage (or regular pork or whatever appeals to you)
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (original recipe used parmesan)
- 1 pound jalapenos, halved lengthwise and seeded
- 1 green onion, finely chopped
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place sausage in a skillet over medium heat, and cook until evenly brown. Drain grease. In a bowl, mix the sausage, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and green onion. Spoon about 1 tablespoon sausage mixture into each jalapeno half. Arrange stuffed halves in a baking dish. Bake 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until bubbly and lightly browned.
***Tips on seeding the jalapenos. 1) Wear gloves throughout the entire process, then remove right after so you don't transfer to sink faucet, cabinet handles, etc. 2) I love my little lemon zester tool for seeding but a small melon baller works great too. 3) As you half and seed the jalapenos, put into a bowl of continuous running water. This helps soften to bake better and removes some heat.***
