Jalapeño Rellenos with Cheese & Bacon
Here I am—Lulu come lately with a last-minute recipe for the Super Bowl. It’s worth a quick trip to the supermarket to make these delicious little appetizers.
I first sampled these tasty and zesty jalapeño rellenos a couple of years ago when my good friend Cathy served them at a Mexican-themed dinner at her house. Our mutual foodie friend Jill and our hubbies all got together and enjoyed the jalapeño rellenos which were a prelude to some fabulous fish tacos.
These little jalapeño rellenos are what I would call a stuffed jalapeño popper which has been cut in half before baking. They are stuffed with a savory cheese filling which includes garlic, onions, bacon and cilantro. The beauty of this recipe is that all you have to do is mix all of the stuffing ingredients in a bowl without cooking anything except the bacon (which is so easy to do in the microwave). You stir things together, fill the jalapeño halves and bake them—that’s it. In 10 or 12 minutes, you will be serving some very tasty morsels to your guests.
When I came home from the supermarket with a huge bag of jalapeños—half for a trial run and half for Super Bowl Sunday, Roger started looking around for the pea pod. He knows that I do not have a palate for spicy hot food. To be honest, I ate only half the pepper but 100% of the filling. 🙂 When Roger saw me doing that, he knew that I was still the real Fran.
