Ingredients
- 5 medium poblano peppers cut in half and seeds removed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese shredded
- 6 strips bacon crumbles
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400° F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Brush the insides of each pepper half with the olive oil and place them on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 5-10 minutes until the peppers start to soften
- In a medium bowl, add the softened cream cheese, 1 cup cheddar cheese, bacon crumbles, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper and mix together well.
- Remove the peppers from the oven and carefully spread the cream cheese mixture in the center of each pepper.
- Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese evenly over them.
- Return to the oven to bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese has melted and the peppers are cooked through.
Notes
- Green poblanos are less spicy that red poblanos so choose according to your desired taste preference.
- Use any cheese you'd like. Monterey Jack, pepper jack, Colby or Mozzarella are good alternatives.
- Use precooked bacon and microwave it until crispy or cook your own bacon either on the stove top or baking the bacon in the oven.
- Add 1 cup of cooked chicken. A rotisserie chicken or canned chicken is great to use.
- Add a can of drained sweet corn or a cup of frozen corn.
- Add 2 tablespoons of ranch dressing mix or ranch dressing itself.
