How to Make Ninja Foodi Jalapeno Poppers
Cook bacon until desired crispiness and allow to cool. Cut jalapeños in half lengthwise and remove stem/seeds.
Tip: wear gloves! It helps to prevent the heat from the jalapeños getting to places they don’t belong.
Have you ever rubbed your eyes after cutting up hot peppers? And you thought you washed your wands well enough. Um, yeah not pleasant!
Layer the jalapeños like this: cream cheese, bacon pieces, shredded cheddar cheese.
Using the air crisp function of the Ninja Foodi, they will cook for about 8 minutes.
