Sausage and Cheese Stuffed Jalapeno Peppers
Teese stuffed jalapeno peppers are so savory and easy to make.
Ingredients
- 25 fresh jalapeno peppers, washed, cut in half lengthwise, and seeded
- 8 ounce cream cheese, softened
- 1 package ground pork sausage, cooked and drained
- 8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
- 8 ounces shredded Monterrey Jack cheese
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees
- In a medium bowl, mix all the cheeses with the cooked sausage. (It's easier to just use your hands to mix it all together!)
- Fill each pepper half with a generous portion of the sausage mixture. The filling should mound slightly above the top edges of the peppers.
- Arrange the peppers on a foil lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the filling is slightly browned.
Notes
Notes: Be sure to wear disposable plastic gloves when working with the peppers. Never touch your eyes or your mouth when handling hot peppers.
You can stuff the peppers ahead of time and refrigerate until ready to bake. Or, you can freeze the stuffed peppers and cook them later. This amount of stuffed peppers will feed about 6 people.
