We try to avoid eating meat & dairy products during the week and only have them on what we have dubbed "Traditional Sunday". Let me tell you, these stuffed jalapeños are worth the wait.
What You'll Need:
- 5 Large Jalapenos, cut in half and seeds removed
- 2-3 Organic Sausage Links (For lower fat use a turkey or chicken sausage)
- 1c Shredded Organic cheese (Here i used a blend of Monterey & cheddar)
- 1/4c bread crumbs (i used Panko) *optional
- Oil
Method: Preheat oven to 425F. After you have cut and removed the seeds from jalapeños, lay them out in a well oiled baking dish. Cut sausage links into small bite size chunks. In a skillet cook sausage over med heat until cooked through. Allow to cool 5 minutes. In a large bowl mix cheese, sausage and bread crumbs. Stuff each jalapeño half with with mixture. Bake about 20 mins or until cheese is bubbly and brown. Enjoy with some low-fat ranch or Cesar or try my Vegan Ranch & Caesar Dips shown at the bottom of this page.
* Vegan Ranch or Caesar:
- 1 packet 'Simply Organic' Ranch or Caesar seasonings
- 1 cup Veganese
- 1/4c soy milk
Method: Whisk all ingredients together and let refrigerate at least two hours before serving. (My hubby loves to each these dips with carrot sticks!~)
