Shrimp Jalapeno Poppers

Yes………..I did just post a Superbowl Appetizer featuring turkey bacon. I am not embarrassed. Repeating to self “I am not embarrassed.”

This recipe I cannot take credit for. Oh no. This belongs to one Kevin Wagner- lover of jalapeños. He dreamed up this recipe back in the fall for a picnic dinner with friends before going through a haunted corn maze. For sake of one K. Wagner, I will refrain from describing his reaction to aforementioned haunted corn maze.

We grilled our jalapeño poppers that night, but tonight I used the broiler. I preferred the grill but both methods work great.
