As you may recall, my neighbor’s mom has a farm and gave us several big bags of jalapenos. I made some yummytastic Jalapeno Poppers right before VeganMoFo started and haven’t had the chance to share them yet as they’re filled with cheeses!

These are an easy version because, instead of breading and frying them, I wrapped them in egg roll wrappers and baked them in the oven. Much simpler, and probably a lot healthier, than the breaded and fried version. It’s super fast and easy. And, if you use homemade egg roll wrappers, it’s pretty darn frugal, too!

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350.

Cut a slit in each jalapeno.

Mix cheeses and taco seasoning and stuff about 1 tablespoon in each jalapeno. Wrap with egg roll wrapper, wetting ends to stick together.

The Results

Mmm…yummy. Not quite as rich as the fried version, but pretty darn tasty. I think I’ll make some jalapeno jam to dip them in next time.
