Stuffed Poppers
- 6 whole jalapenos
- 12 slices Apple wood Smoked bacon
- 4 blocks Boursin Cheese (could use any flavor, chef likes the classic)

PROCESS:
- Start by cutting the jalapeño in half then with a spoon.
- scrape the seeds out of each half, but leave the stem attached if possible.
- Fill the scooped-out jalapeño half’s with Boursin cheese.
- Wrap the stuffed jalapeños with one slice of bacon per each half of the jalapeño.
- Repeat this process until all the peppers are stuffed and wrapped.
- Place the poppers on a cookie sheet and bake in the oven at 400 degrees for about 10 minutes.
