Now, when I say making these delicious low-carb roasted jalapeno poppers is super easy, I mean it!

The first thing you’ll need to do is prep your jalapenos by cutting them lengthwise and removing the seeds and most of the white pith/membrane.

Be sure you use gloves and don’t make the mistake of touching your face.

Contrary to popular belief, the heat comes from the membrane and not the seeds. So if you prefer less spicy keto jalapeno poppers then remove all of the membranes.

Once your jalapenos are prepped and ready you’ll prepare your filling. In a small bowl, you’ll combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar, and Rotel diced tomatoes and chiles. 

Then you’ll fill each of the jalapeno halves with the cream cheese filling and wrap them up with the bacon. All that’s left is to pop them in the oven and wait for the bacon to cook and filling to melt and bubble.
