I have never made these with vegetarian bacon, and I know I never will - real bacon is required for this dish in my opinion! I add some shredded cheddar cheese & chopped green onions - and brush some bbq sauce on top of the bacon, and its just one of those addictive foods you can't stop eating. I give the recipe a 3-4 star as written, but a 5 star plus with a couple modifications.

This was a hit with my family. I mixed seasonings (cayanne pepper, chipolte pepper and salt) in the cream cheese to give it a kick. I also used real bacon. I put the mixture in a ziploc bag and cut a hole in it so that I could easily put the cream cheese inside each pepper. I do recommend using gloves. I didnt and my hands were on fire by the time I finished removing the seeds~!

I also used the ready cooked bacon. These were wonderful!! I made them for my husband and myself and they were yummy. He even liked them and he doesnt like Jalapenos! Make sure you use a good bacon since most of the flavor does come from the bacon. The only thing i did that was different was cut the bacon in half and lay it on top of the pepper half since i dont like to much bacon. very yummy....will make it again!

These are quite excellent. I used whole peppers and removed the stem and just enough of the inside so that I could stuff them full of cream cheese. I used light cream cheese so that the heat of the oven wouldn't cause the cheese to run out all over the baking sheet. I also used real bacon...one slice per pepper. Oh my, were they good! There were enough of the seeds left inside the peppers to give them a definite kick! I'll make these again and again. I didn't time the cooking time but baked them until the bacon looked crispy. Probably about 30 - 45 minutes. Thank you for the great recipe!

I've never tried these particular ones, but when my family was here from New Orleans, my stepson made some similar. After seeding and removing the membranes to make the peppers milder (to my dismay, lol) he also added some cheddar on top of the cream cheese before wrapping in the regular meat bacon. YUM YUM YUM. A big hit that I'll make for a long time to come.

With only three ingredients, these looked too good to be true. I used real bacon, cooked in the microwave just until done and pliable. I added another minute or two to the oven cooking time. The only suggestion I have is to list the serving size as more than only one - just try to eat only one of these!! Only three of us inhaled all 18 rather quickly.

I prefer to grill my poppers, because it gives them a slightly smokey flavor. I also lightly fry the bacon before wrapping them, to reduce the chance of burning the jalapenos. Absolutely delicious. Can't make them that often, or I might have a heart attack.

yummy! my hubby was drinking gallons of water, but would not stop eating them! the recipe does need more than 8oz of cream cheese, probably 12oz would be enough.

Loved This. Was a big hit over Easter. Changed a couple of things due to other reviewers suggestions. I mixed some parmesan with the cream cheese and laid a piece of bacon on top of the jalapeno's. I baked at 400 for 25 minutes and then broiled until crispy. Yummy

I made the poppers with both real bacon and veggie bacon. It's definitely a hit for the people who eat meat and my vegetarian friends. Adding chive and onion cream cheese makes a huge difference. I actually mixed it with whipped cream cheese so it wasn't so heavy.

These were awesome! I didn't have any gloves so I used plastic bags over my hands. Instead of wrapping the bacon I cut the strips of bacon in half and placed over the piped cream cheese. Anyhow I took these to a luau party and they were a huge hit, eaten in minutes. thx for sharing!

These are WONDERFUL but I use real bacon and I cooked mine on the grill outside. You just grill until bacon is done.

All I can about these is YUM. My boyfriend has been making a recipe similar to this for years, whenever we have a party or guests over. He uses a tub of spreadable cream cheese in leiu of a block of cheese. I have never tried it with soy bacon, but now that I've gone mostly vegetarian, I will have to give it a try! These are by far, my favorite appetizer!

A friend of mine made these for Superbowl party, They were Great! So I thought I would try to make some at home. They were so easy and a hit! I used real bacon as well and turned up the heat to 400* and cooked longer.

The recipe is good. But I add half a pound of browned sausage into the cream cheese and then stuff the jalapenos. Just make sure to drain the bacon well, or they can come out too greasy.
