I'd been wanting to make bacon wrapped jalapeños for tailgating ever since I'd seen an ad in a cooking magazine. I also thought of jalapeño poppers and had eaten gorgonzola/goat cheese stuffed figs/dates (yes I've had all varieties) before. I opted for the easiest to obtain/cheapest ingredients, but cooking time will probably differ if you opt for prosciutto over bacon (o:

Ingredients

5 mins

1 serving

1 serving/wrapped jalapeño
1 largejalapeño (or whatever size you'd like)
2dates (or figs, if you're feeling fancy)
2 ozgoat cheese (can Sub in gorgonzola or cheese w/similar texture)
1 sliceBacon (or equivalent prosciutto if that's what you like!)

Cooking Instructions

5 mins

1

Preheat oven to 375°F
2

Either use nonstick cookie/baking sheet or prep by covering with aluminum foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray
3

Slit the jalapeño vertically on the side, but do not slice all the way through. Core and de-seed to your preference.
4

Do the same with the dates (I used medjool dates), but it's not a big deal if you accidentally slice all the way through.
5

Using 1 teaspoon (or small spoon), dollop out some of the goat cheese (or gorgonzola or similar consistency cheese that you'd like the flavor to come out) into the date(s) and close the date up. Since the cheese will be creamy/sticky, the date should stay closed.
6

If you're using a large jalapeño, you can stuff 2 of these stuffed dates (or figs) into it.
7

*Keep in mind that depending on the size of your jalapeño, you may only be able to stuff it with one of these stuffed dates (or figs).
8

If you LOVE bacon (or prosciutto, if you choose to use that), then you can use two slices or one thick cut, whatever your preference. I used one slice and wrapped around the jalapeño. Use toothpicks to hold in place, as necessary.
9

Load your bacon wrapped jalapeños stuffed with goat cheese stuffed dates (or whatever variety you end up with) onto the baking sheet
10

Bake for 20 minutes, or check every 5 minutes thereafter until the bacon is crispy/at the consistency you and/or your guests enjoy it. (If you've stored it away in the fridge before baking it (for an event, e.g.), then double the initial baking time.)
11

Let cool for 5 minutes, but be aware they're piping hot! 10 minutes might cool them too much, but use your discretion and kick off the game (or whatever you happen to be doing while enjoying these delights)!

My friend Laura and I wanted these for tomorrow, but Kroger's didn't have them. So we decided to make them for the 4th of July.

One day I was buying my errand and saw these big, fresh chili and a friend had told me that if not wise to prepare wrapped in bacon ... and I wanted to try for Christmas when we had a meeting of friends and they love them and eat all .. .myself can't reach any one. And as they were so successful .... I have repeated several times this recipe.

I made this recipe up,it turned out very well and everyone loved it,these were not spicy at all,I was a little disappointed with that. That being said ,the next time around I'm going to try chorizo or maybe some other spice in the original ones.

These jalapeño poppers are creamy in the middle with crispy bacon on the outside. They're easy to make and taste so much better than traditional poppers.

you need a rack to stand peppers up while cooking. I got mine out of cabelas magazine. with a little tweaking this can be adapted to anyone's situation.

Was looking for a different way to make corn & came up with this! Went over well with my family. I only used 1/2 a jalapeño only because not all of my family likes spicy.

Today while surfing facebook one of my Venus sisters posted a Delish video for jalapeño popper chicken. This is my spin on it. The MFP info will be for 2 roll ups but I ended up only eating 1 which was plenty. This was really flavorful and satisfying
