Why?

I love to cook and bake, but things don't always turn out like the recipe. This is where I share my success and fails in the realm of all things food, and my journey as I attempt to bring out the culinary genius that is hiding in me...somewhere.

Bacon Wrapped Peppers

These little appetizers are delicious. Steven and I first had them at a friend's engagement party, and we instantly fell in love.  They are so easy, and people are always impressed with how 'fancy' they are. Sssh, just don't tell them how easy they really are!


Take however many jalapeno or yellow peppers that you want (just get any pepper that is about two bites, and it will be great) and slice each one in half lengthwise.  De-seed the peppers, especially if they are jalapeno to help remove the spicy bite.  Take a room temperature block of cream cheese, and stuff each half with the cream cheese.  Now here's the secret ingredient: dates. Place a whole date on top of the cream cheese, and then wrap the whole concoction in a slice of bacon.  Bake all of the prepared peppers at 350 for about 25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy.

Enjoy!
