Asparagus

Quick & easy! Only 3 ingredients required: bacon, a block of Cheddar cheese and jalapeno peppers. The men in my family are crazy about these yummy treats. In fact, my husband often eats them as a meal!

Ingredients

  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 (1 ounce) package dry ranch salad dressing mix
  • 1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder
  • 20 large jalapeno peppers, halved and seeded
  • 1 pound sliced bacon, cut in half

Directions

  • Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Stir together the cream cheese, Cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, ranch dressing mix, and garlic powder in a mixing bowl until evenly blended. Spoon some of the cheese mixture into each jalapeno half, wrap with half a bacon strip, and secure with a toothpick. Arrange the wrapped jalapeno halves onto a broiler pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the bacon is no longer pink and beginning to brown, about 20 minutes.
