Time 1h

Yield 14

Number Of Ingredients 6

7 jalapeno peppers, stemmed and halved lengthwise
1 teaspoon olive oil
5 ounces soy chorizo (such as Trader Joe's®)
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
¼ cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1 (16 ounce) package sliced bacon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a wire rack.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and chorizo; cook and stir until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Mix chorizo, cream cheese, and Cheddar together using a blender or hand mixer until thoroughly combined. Push mixture into one corner of a resealable zip-top bag and cut the tip to create a pastry bag.
  • Pipe mixture into the jalapenos. Wrap each jalapeno with a slice of bacon, overlapping it over the filling. Place jalapenos on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until bacon is crispy and jalapenos are tender, about 35 minutes.
