Low Carb Cheese Stuffed Jalapeno Poppers

Low Carb Cheese Stuffed Jalapeno Poppers are a great snack or appetizer for those that want something delicious and low carb! You can pick how spicy you want them by leaving in some seeds and/or veins if you want spicy, if not, take out all the seeds and all the veins.

Mixing the ingredients together is much easier if you can set the cream cheese out a few hours before you plan to mix everything, it stirs together very nicely. If you forget, you can still mix it, it will just take a little more effort.

I do all my prep work before I start mixing, I grate the cheese, cut up the green onions and measure everything. I also clean the jalapenos ahead of time so they can dry while I am doing the cream cheese mixture.

Try to not overfill the jalapenos, the mixture has a tendency to expand while cooking which can make it bubble out of the jalapeno. When wrapping the bacon, try to make sure the whole jalapeno is covered. You can use more than one piece if you need to, have extra bacon on hand just in case.
