For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling the jalapenos briefly before stuffing them. If you're sensitive to spice, consider using poblano peppers instead of jalapenos. The filling can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator until ready to use.

Jun 19, 2025I found that chilling the filled peppers for about 15 minutes before baking helped the cheese stay put and prevented them from getting too greasy.
