Talk about a perfect mix. You have to love sausage stuffed jalapeƱos. The salty rich taste of sausage meets the bright spicy kick of jalapeƱo pepper. And it’s all tied together with the creamy tang of cream cheese and Parmesan. It’s the type of appetizer that’ll leave the crowd smiling. It’s a bit of bite-size heaven if you ask us. You can serve it with your favorite jalapeƱo popper dips, but we think they taste perfect just as they are.Ā
Sausage stuffed jalapeƱos is also a perfect recipe if you have a ton of extra chilies sitting around. This recipe calls for 20 jalapeƱos, but it can be easily ramped up for family gatherings and parties as you need. Don’t expect them to last long once they hit the table.
