Ingredients
  • 10 large or about 20 small jalapeños
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 package taco seasoning (1 oz)

  • Smoked paprika
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Slice the jalapeños lengthwise in half and remove the seeds and veins.
  3. Brown the beef in a skillet, breaking it into crumbles with a fork and adding the taco seasoning and beef bouillon as it cooks. Drain off excess fat.
  4. Stir in the cream cheese so it melts in with the beef.
  5. With a large spoon, fill each pepper half with the meat mixture and arrange in a glass baking dish.
  6. Spread the shredded cheese evenly over the stuffed peppers, and evenly sprinkle with paprika. Bake for 20 minutes and serve.
