This is a frequent request at my house, very tasty and easy. These can also be baked in the oven if you don't have a grill. Just place them on a rack (with something placed underneath to catch the bacon grease, of course), pop them in a 375 degree oven until the bacon is done, usually 30 minutes or so.

The best and easiest recipe for these I have found and tested! I do add that, my personal preference, that I cook the bacon 2/3 of the way in the microwave since the bacon is raw while the peppers and cream cheese only need to warm up for effect. Doing this to the bacon, for me, ensures that the bacon will be extra crisp AND cooked thoroughly....thanks for having such an amazing recipe and thanks to RecipeZaar for being such a great help!
