Cooking Steps
- Add the cream cheese, cheddar, garlic, green onions, cooked diced bacon, and lime juice to a bowl and mix thoroughly.
- Add salt and black pepper to taste, and continue to mix.
- Cut your jalapenos in half and remove the ribs and seeds. Add a pinch of salt and black pepper to the jalapenos.
- If you want your grilled stuffed jalapenos spicy, add some of the removed seeds to the mix. The more you add, the spicier each jalapeno will be.
- Using a spoon, fill each jalapeno with the mixture.
- Grill the jalapenos for 10 minutes over medium heat, or until going soft. Remember, you want the jalapenos easy to pick up and over-cooking will make that difficult.
- Once cooked, top with tomatoes and cilantro. Then serve.
