Jalapeno Popper Dip

"Made this for Super Bowl 2011. Wanted the taste of poppers, but not the hassle of wrapping bacon around the stuffed jalapeno peppers. Turned out great. Lots of rave reviews. I would like it hotter and am planning to try it the next time without roasting the jalapenos. I am up for suggestions to make this much hotter!"

directions

  • Pre heat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Cut jalapenos in half lengthwise and remove seeds and veins (I left some seeds and veins for more heat). You need to wear rubber gloves for this step or you will suffer.
  • Toss peppers with oil and place in pan to roast. Sometimes I roast the onions also for a milder flavor.
  • Roast for 20-30 minutes, stirring half way through.
  • Let peppers cool.
  • Cook bacon (unless using real bacon bits).
  • Either hand cut peppers, onion and bacon or process in a food processer.
  • Mix softened cream cheese, spices, mayo, sour cream, popper/bacon/onion mix and cheese.
  • Put in a greased 9x9" pan.
  • Top with Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake for 30 minutes at 325 degrees.
  • Serve with tortilla chips, crackers, party bread, etc.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I have lived in Nebraska (Go Huskers!) for all but 14 years of my life, when I lived in Tucson, AZ (loved it!). I have been a Respiratory Therapist since 1981. I have 2 sons, 35 (will eat anything that doesn't eat him first!) and 22 (extremely picky and has never liked much meat) and one grandson (diabetic), 16. I also have two lovely step daughters and they collectively have 5 delightful children. I love, love, love to cook and peruse cookbooks and recipes, but do not do it much since marrying my wonderful husband 7 years ago as he likes to stay busy with side construction type jobs, so I never know if he will be home for an evening meal or not (and he refuses to eat leftovers!). I really need to get better about making smaller meals. It wouldn't hurt either of us to lose a few pounds, either. My favorite cookbooks are an old Betty Crocker cookbook (orange or red cover) I got as a wedding gift in 1973 and a cookbook from a community hospital from the early 1980"s.
