These are really good and surprisingly mild. When on a low-carb diet they add some zip to some sometimes bland meals.

Time 40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb jalapeno pepper
1 bunch scallion, green tops only, finely sliced
1 teaspoon garlic powder
paprika
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup shredded yellow cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Split jalepeno pepper down the side, but keep the stem in tact (wear gloves).
  • With your thumb or a teaspoon, scrape out the seeds and membrane leaving a pocket in which to stuff. Blend cream cheese, cheddar cheese, green onion, and garlic powder. Stuff each pepper with the cheese mixture and place on a sprayed baking sheet and top with a sprinkle of paprika.
  • Bake for about 25 minutes or until the peppers are softened and cheese is melted. Let sit a few minutes for the cheese to set up before eating.
