These cheesy stuffed peppers make a great appetizer or snack. They aren't overly hot because the jalapenos are boiled first, which reduces some of the heat
25 medium jalapeno peppers
1 package (8 ounce size) cream cheese, softened
3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
Cut jalapeno peppers in half lengthwise: remove seeds. Place peppers in boiling water for 5 minutes: drain well.
Combine cream cheese, cheddar cheese and Worcestershire sauce, stir well. Place one heaping teaspoon of cheese mixture on each pepper half.
Sprinkle with bacon and place on a baking sheet. Bake at 400 degrees F for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Cooking the jalapenos in water reduces the heat level so these are a tasty snack without being too hot and spicy. If you want them spicier, boil them for less time. Very easy to make too.
