Blue Cheese Mummy Jalapeño Poppers
Food and fun go hand-in-hand in our family. We take any opportunity to make our food festive, and these Mummy Jalapeño Poppers are a blast to make with kids. Halloween is a great time to add joy into you cooking.
And even though this recipe has a great gimmick, the flavor is still the star. The bacon adds a rich smokiness to the filling, which features my Blue Cheese, Honey & Shallot Spread.
These undead delectables shamble off the plate at an alarming rate -- you might want to make a double batch!
