Shoutout to the creative people out there…
If you are feeling like you want to add more flavor to the jalapeno poppers try wrapping them with bacon – an amazing substitute for pastry and the taste is terrific!
If you are more on the spooky side try out the mummy look alike jalapeno poppers by adding edible candy eyes or black olives to your Jalapeno after baking it.
Looking forward to hearing your feedback on this recipe!
Have to give these a try!
