Ketogenic Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers Recipe

Ketogenic Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers Recipe

I realize this recipe would have been a bit more helpful before the 4th of July but what can I say, that’s when I made them for my family so hopefully you will enjoy them at your next holiday gathering or whenever.

Honestly, who needs a holiday to enjoy a delicious food wrapped in bacon.  Bacon is amazing all the time!

So the key thing to remember here is that all the heat is in the seeds.  

Do you want some heat?  Mix a few seeds into the cheese mix.  

Want a lot of heat?  Mix ALL those seeds into the cheese mix.  

Are you like my family and want absolutely no heat and get mad at the guy cooking if it is even slightly hotter than a bell pepper despite the fact that he took the time to not only wrap 2 dozen peppers in bacon but also cook a delicious 4th of July meal out on the grill under the hot sun for the whole day?  Just throw those seeds in the trash and rinse the peppers off with water before stuffing them.  To each his own!

If you decide to make this, please take a pic and tag @MySugarFreeJrny on Instagram.  I love to see those pics!  Also, you can find all my sugar free and ketogenic recipes here.
