Peppered Bacon Wrapped Cajun Jalapenos

I have a jalapeno plant on my farm that is laden with ripe japs., so I am definitely gonna make this one (and you will, too, Staci!!):

8 large jalapeno peppers
1 package (3 oz.) cream cheese with chives*, softened
1/2 cup finely shredded sharp* cheddar cheese
1 t. Cajun seasoning
8 thick-sliced peppered bacon strips

Cut jalapenos in half lengthwise; remove seeds and membranes (wear gloves). In a small bowl, combine cream cheese, cheddar, and Cajun seasoning. Stuff about 1&1/2 t. into each pepper half. Cut bacon strips in half widthwise. In a large skillet, cook bacon until partially cooked. Wrap a bacon piece around each pepper; secure with a toothpick. Place on a wire rack in a shallow baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 350 for 25-30 mins. or until bacon is crisp. Discard toothpicks. Serve immediately.

Savor everything today, and have FUN doing it!!

Love,

MM
