My friend Frank recently told me about these while we were on a hike, so I can't take credit. They're so easy that I couldn't help but post them for anyone looking for a low-carb appetizer. 3 ingredients, that's it!

Ingredients:
10 jalapeño peppers
8 oz. of cream cheese
10 slices of uncooked bacon

Directions: 
Most recipes call for halved peppers. I tried a few whole ones (see below) and they were delicious, so it's really up to you! Either way, you need to get the seeds and membranes out of all the peppers. Next, fill them up with cream cheese. Wrap a piece of bacon around each pepper (half a piece, if you're cutting them in half)*. Bake at 400 F for about 15 minutes, then broil on the top shelf for another 5 minutes to crisp up the bacon. 
SO GOOD. 
​
*Bacon is one of the best low-carb treats ever. If you want to use a whole slice of bacon per half pepper, GO FOR IT! 

Makes 20 poppers (if you cut each pepper in half) with the following nutrition:
