This is a wonderful appetizer. The flavors of Jalapeno, pork sausage, and cream cheese make mouths water. My family loves this, and begs for it on every holiday. Ingredients:
20 whole pickled jalapeno peppers (i use a large can of san marcos brand, you can also use fresh jalapenos, steamed for a few minutes) |
1 lb pork sausage (i use hot pork sausage from owens) |
1 cup breadcrumbs |
1 egg |
1 (8 ounce) container soft cream cheese (i use non-fat) |
Directions:
1. Cut off stems of jalapenos; using a knife and scooping action, remove all seeds and ridges. Rinse well; be sure you have all the seeds out!
2. Combine sausage, egg, and bread crumbs in a bowl.
3. Fill jalapenos with cream cheese, using a spoon or cake decorator with large tip.
4. Make small patties with the sausage mix; wrap one around each jalapeno, sealing it with your fingers.
5. Place on cookie sheet; bake in over at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes. Let cool, cut in half across the middle. Makes 40 Jalapeno eggs.
6. Serve with or without a salsa dip.
