Stuffed jalapeños are a zesty appetizer originating from Tex-Mex cuisine, combining bold flavors with a spicy kick. These peppers are typically hollowed out and filled with a savory mixture that often includes cream cheese, shredded cheese, and sometimes bacon or sausage. They are then baked, grilled, or fried until the filling is creamy and the jalapeños are tender. Rich in vitamin C, peppers themselves are a healthy choice, but the addition of high-fat ingredients can make this dish calorie-dense and indulgent. Baked versions offer a lighter alternative to frying, reducing added fats while preserving the vibrant, spicy flavor. Whether served as a party snack or a side dish, stuffed jalapeños invite you to enjoy a satisfying balance of heat, creaminess, and crunch.
