I bake my poppers, too - no frying.

Saturday, I used a brick of cream cheese softened & a brick of medium sharp cheddar grated fine (8 oz each). I chopped fine half a small onion (I love onions) & added a half teaspoon of garlic powder to my cheese ‘stuffing’.

Bacon - I wrap my poppers with bacon. Usually, with small peppers, I use half a strip of bacon. The jalapenos were so huge this year, I wrapped each half with a whole strip of bacon! I bake in my toaster oven ... did 350 for about 30 - 40 minutes, until the bacon is done.

Delicious hot - I had some leftovers (cold) Sunday morning. I still have enough huge ones for another batch - need more cheddar (have cream cheese/bacon) so I’ll be stopping by Aldi’s today.

FALL is my very favorite time of year! Spring is great because you’re able to get going with the garden, but I love the crisp fall air, low humidity, the smell of leaves ... ‘sweater weather’. I’m also looking forward to a couple of fires in the fire pit ... need to get it cleaned up!

Our 8-day weather is up/down ... but the trend is ‘fallish’ & hopefully, the humidity will be dropping:

Today/Tues - 89/64
Wednesday - 90/68 - hot!
Thursday - 87/53 (T-storms)
Friday - 72/48
Saturday - 75/52
Sunday - 80/60
Monday - 78/57 (rainy)
Tuesday - 74/48

Oooo! I like the, ‘wrap in bacon’ part! How did I miss that? LOL!
