Jalapeno Popper Deviled Eggs

When looking up recipes for the Bacon Jalapeno Popper Quiche, I came across a recipe for Jalapeno Popper Deviled Eggs, and I felt like continuing the jalapeno theme.

Jalapeno Popper Deviled Eggs

ingredients
  • 6 hard boiled eggs, peeled
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
  • 3 tablespoons cream cheese, whipped
  • 3 tablespoons cheddar, shredded finely
  • 1/4 cup jalapenos (pickled, fresh or roasted), diced finely
  • 1/4 cup bacon, cooked and crumbled finely
  • 6 tablespoons cheddar, shredded finely
directions
  1. Cut the eggs in half, scoop the yolks out, mash the yolks and mix with the mayonnaise, cream cheese, cheddar, jalapenos and bacon and place a tablespoon of the mixture back into the holes left by the yolks in the eggs.
  2. Sprinkle on remaining cheddar, place on a baking sheet and broil until the cheese has melted.
These turned out well, but not as spicy as I'd hoped. If I try these again, I'll use the pickled jalapenos, which are a little spicier.
