ARMADILLO EGGS (STUFFED JALAPENOS)
These are so yummy. The cheese and bacon are a great compliment to the jalapeno flavor and reduce the heat of the peppers. This is my adaptation of an appetizer I had many years ago.

Steps:
- Slice jalapenos in half and clean out seeds (be sure to get them all or they will be hot).
- Mix cheese, onion and garlic salt together and spoon into jalapeno halves.
- Wrap each with 1/2 strip of bacon.
- Place on cookie rack placed over a cookie sheet to catch the drippings.
- Bake at 350 for about 45 minutes or until the bacon is crisp.
- The thin bacon wraps easier.
- I just tuck the ends under the bottom.
- Amazingly, these are not hot if you get all the seeds out.
- There are never enough of them no matter how many I make because they are so popular.

My son came home from Omaha with this recipe and his Dad has been hooked ever since. Extremely easy and addictive! Great for breakfast and works for appetizers as well. Feel free to use your choice of chilies and sausage.

TEXAS LIZARD EGGS
This comes from the food section of the Houston Chronicle. I made some for a Super Bowl get-together yesterday and everyone loved them. I used a roll of regular and a roll of hot sausage and stuck toothpick "stems" in the eggs so nibblers could tell the difference. Use smallish jalapenos for this recipe.You will find that they are not very "jalapeno" hot,but they do have that flavor-great for parties!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Split the jalapenos end to end, making little "canoes" of them.
- Clean out the centers, removing all the seeds and veins.
- Fill each half level with cream cheese.
- With the sausage, take a "meatball" sized portion, flatten it in your hand, making a rectangle out of it.
- Take the filled jalapeno half and wrap it completely with the sausage.
- Wash hands thoroughly to remove pepper "stuff".
- Place on a broiler pan or cooling rack suspended over a baking pan that has been sprayed with cooking spray.
- Bake in the oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until evenly browned.
- Let "eggs" cool a bit and enjoy!
