So, when I initially started this blog I thought it would be full of all healthy stuff, but that hasn't happened too often because I mainly bake and baking healthy is hard unless you use artificial sweeteners, which I am not a fan of, if you are, it is fine, but me, I don't like the after taste, but these are a step in the right direction, sort of. These jalapeno poppers are baked rather than fried so that saves few hundred calories. I made these for a new years party that I went to and everyone loved them . They have a kick to them, but how can they not when I make them? The heat, however, isn't too overpowering. I hope that you try them and love them. They use wonton wrappers and before you go to four different stores like I did let me tell you wonton wrappers are not in the Asian food section! They are in the produce aisle near the tofu.
Oh and if you have friends like mine who are MAJOR spice wimps (Love you Sonya and Tobi) I suggest switching the jalapenos for a half cup of bacon bits for bacon poppers!
Now here is the recipe. I hope you enjoy.
What you need.
1 package of wonton wrappers.
4oz dice jalapenos (I used picked )
1 cup hot pepper blend shredded cheese.
8 oz cream cheese
How you make them.
1. preheat of to 375F
2. Combine jalapenos and cheeses. I recommend using a stand mixer or hand mixer to make it easier.
3. Put a tablespoon of the mixture into the center of the wonton and wet the edges of the wonton with a small amount of water and fold in half so it is in the shape of a triangle.
4. Bake 10-15 minutes.
5. Enjoy!
Or it can be.
Baking has always been something I have been passionate about. I also enjoy cooking. No, I am not a professional chef or baker, as you will probably see in my dishes; they aren't always the prettiest of things. I do love cooking though, and because of my family I tend to cook low calorie dishes, but I warn you, some do go out there in the calorie zone. I will post yummy recipes I make along with pictures here. I warn you I do like spicy food, so sometimes they will be a little spicy, but I will let you sometimes choose how spicy the meal is. Anywho enjoy.
