Jalapeno poppers

Corey’s cousin and his wife brought these over last weekend when we had them over for dinner and I just about died! I can’t handle spicy foods and thought jalapeno poppers would obviously be spicy so I was kind of afraid to try them but I was mistaken. I can’t even tell you how delicious they are and while they definitely could be healthier, they aren’t pigs-in-a-blanket so I say a few won’t kill ya! I cut this recipe in half since 1 jalapeno makes 2 poppers :) Thank you Jon and Anna Lena!! Here is their recipe:

Jalapeno poppers

Ingredients

  • 1 (8 ounce) package light cream cheese, softened
  • 1 (8 ounce) package shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup light mayonnaise
  • 15 fresh jalapeno peppers, halved lengthwise and seeded
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 tablespoon skim milk
  • 1 1/2 cups crushed corn flake cereal

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking sheet.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together cream cheese, sharp Cheddar cheese and mayonnaise. Stuff jalapeno halves with the mixture.
  3. Whisk together eggs and milk in a small bowl. Place crushed corn flake cereal in a separate small bowl.
  4. Dip each stuffed jalapeno half into the egg and milk mixture, then roll in corn flake cereal to coat.
  5. Arrange in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven 30 minutes, or until filling is bubbly and lightly browned.

Enjoy!
