This Grilled Stuffed Jalapenos recipe is awesome and soooo easy to make! Ten minutes is all you need to put together an unforgettable appetizer that’s filled with smoky crumbled bacon, cilantro and a little lime juice for extra punch.
This recipe is a healthier, fresh alternative to the popular, breaded version. Excellent flavor! Love, love, love them!
These peppers are to die for. I’ve made them just about weekly since we have tried them.
