Grasshoppers

These babies may not look all that appetizing (apart from the bacon!) but they are fantastic. I could
eat 20 of them in a sitting if I was my pre-keto self. They are the "pringles" of snacks! Once you pop - you can't stop!
You might know these by another name but I've always heard them called 'Grasshoppers'.  Bacon wrapped, cream cheese filled jalapeno poppers!
They are extremely easy to make and the crunchier you get the bacon the better these taste! I missed the beer battered deep fried version of jalapeno poppers, but these quickly took over my hear!
Ingredients:
  • 5 jalapenos sliced in half lengthwise and gutted
  • 3/4 c. Cream Cheese (Philadelphia seems to have the least carbs)
  • 5 Strips of Bacon
Directions:
  1. Prepare your jalapenos (Slice, Gut, get rid of seeds and ribs)
  2. Fill with cream cheese
  3. Wrap with 1/2 strip of bacon
  4. Place on a broiler pan and bake at 375 degrees until bacon is almost done 6-10 min
  5. Turn oven to broil and broil for 2-4 minutes to crisp up the bacon
  6. Let cool and enjoy!
  7. Makes 10 Grasshoppers
