Sausage Stuffed Peppers

Sausage Stuffed Peppers

Ingredients:

• 1 lb jalapenos/sweetbite peppers
• 1 lb bulk sausage
• 1 8 oz block of softened cream cheese (I prefer the low fat cream cheese also called Neufchatel)
• 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Cooking Instructions

1.  Prep the jalapenos. Cut the top off each jalapeno, just below the stem. Cut each jalapeno in half lengthwise and remove the seeds

2. Make the filling. Brown the sausage in a skillet and drain. Mix in the cream cheese and Parmesan cheese until everything is well incorporated.

3. Fill the jalapenos. Spoon approximately 1 Tbsp of filling into each jalapeno.

4. Cook. Bake stuffed jalapenos at 425 degrees for 20 minutes. You may want to use some non-stick spray on the pan. I never have, but sometimes they stick a little.

5. Serve. Throw these guys on a tray and then duck and cover. You don't want to get crushed in the stampede for stuffed jalapenos.
