directions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking pan with parchment or foil.
- Cut jalapeño peppers down the center longways from the stem to the tip. Scrape out seeds and membranes using a spoon and discard. Lay pepper halves, cut side up, on a prepared baking pan.
- For filling mix together browned and crumbled sausage, softened herbed cream cheese, shredded pepper jack cheese and half the diced red bell peppers. Blend until well mixed.
- Using a small spoon, generously fill halved jalapeños with sausage-cheese filling. Add remaining 1/4 cup diced red bell peppers to tops.
- Bake for 20-30 minutes or until cheese is melted, hot, and just beginning to brown. Remove from oven, and let cool a few minutes before serving.
