Bacon and Ranch Jalapeño Poppers

Upgrade your jalapeño poppers with a dash of ranch, with a recipe you can prepare in advance for any sports occasion or Holiday celebration. This is almost too easy to even be called a recipe.

These little devils are not only super easy to make but you can prepare the filling in advance and have it ready at a moment’s notice. The jalapeno poppers travel well and are perfectly delicious if they cool to room temperature before you make it to your destination. I like to make double the filling and use it for stuffed mushrooms as well btw.

How about that for a bonus?
