These Jalapeno Poppers appetizers are a party favorite. Try these lucious Alouette cheese, savory and slightly smokey pepper- followed by a zingy pop. Roasting jalapenos make them mild and delicious. These are finished with a crunchy bacon wrapper right around the tip. ( I have even joked about using a wine charm right around the tip- but that’s not edible-so watch out)
No breading to mask these sensational flavors. Jalapenis Poppers are perfect for friends on a Keto or Gluten-free diet. They are best served warm- makes about 20. You may want to double this recipe for a summer BBQ or Cinco de Mayo party- JalaPenis Poppers are always the first to go!

Jalapenos are a popular type of chili pepper that are frequently used in Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine. While they may provide a spicy kick to many dishes, they are also believed to be quite healthy. For one, jalapenos are rich in Vitamin C, which is essential for immune system health and skin integrity. They also contain capsaicin, a chemical compound that has been linked to a number of potential health benefits, such as improved digestion, decreased inflammation, and even weight loss. Jalapenos are also low in calories and carbohydrates, which makes them a popular choice for people who are trying to eat a healthy diet. That being said, it is important to keep in mind that people with certain medical conditions, such as acid reflux, may want to avoid eating jalapenos as they can sometimes exacerbate symptoms.
You may not find a correlation, but generally smaller peppers have more capsaicin than larger ones. Also you may find that peppers that are smoother- and less stressed are less spicey, while peppers that look like they have ‘stitches’ (white lines)- may be stressed and hotter.
Try Poblano peppers- they are much more subtle and savory
Don’t let “Jalapeno Hands” scare you away from our delicious Jalapeno recipes“Jalapeno Hands” or eyes could be a Shitastrophy! It could affect you- even hours after cooking. Though you may not feel a burn immediately, when you cut into a Jalapeno, capsaicin can transfer to your skin- and potentially any part of the body you touch- Especially painful if you touch your eyes- Wear gloves!
The best remedy is prevention (gloves), but if you ever have “Jalapeno Hands”, cool milk or yogurt can help relieve the burning sensation. Oil or hot soapy water can also help dissolve the capsaicin on your skin.
You will generally find a jalapeno pepper burn to sting for about an hour. If a burn is more severe, your burn sensitivity can last for several hours- especially if untreated.
