I've had these before! They ARE delicious- just the right amount of heat!
These look so yummy! I am not a big fan of sausage. Is there a substitution you suggest?
we wrap them with bacon. ;)
You could try substituting the sausage with ground chicken or ground turkey. But I would add your favorite seasonings as the ground chicken and turkey would be more bland.
Yum! Jalapenos are perfect game day food for sure.
Your recipes look amazing, Jane. I'm bookmarking your jalapenos for my next get together!
I made these for the football game. My husband loved them. I thought they were super delicious and they were fun to make. Thanks for a great recipe.
