Kerrygold Stuffed Poblano Peppers

So I am obsessed with this cheese.....

And I will create meals just so I have an excuse to eat it!

Of course I could probably eat an entire block of cheese to myself at one sitting.... but instead I decided to share the cheese with others and made some stuffed poblano peppers for a Father's Day cookout!

Kerrygold Stuffed Poblano's:

Ingredients:

• 3 large poblano's
• 8 oz cream cheese
• 1/2 cup shredded Kerrygold Irish cheddar
• 1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
• lime juice from 1 lime
• lime zest from 1 lime
• 1 teaspoon jalapeno cilantro seasoning- see pic below
• dash salt
• dash pepper
• pre-cooked bacon slices- one slice for each pepper half (Hormel makes a good variety)

Jalapeno Cilantro seasoning:

Directions:

• Cut polanos in half and remove seeds and stem (some might be big enough to cut into thirds, you just want to make sure that they create boat like shapes so that when you stuff them with the cheese it can't ooze out)
• Combine cheddar,  cream cheese, spices and lime in a bowl
• Stuff the poblanos with the cheese mixture
• Wrap the bacon (uncooked) around the poblano pepper and secure with a toothpick if needed
• On the grill, over medium heat, add the poblano peppers directly to the grill on the top wrack
• Cover grill and cook for about 5 minutes
• Once the pepper is slightly charred and the cheese mixture is melted and bacon is crispy you can pull them off.
• Let cool for 3 min
• You can also cook these in the oven if you don't have a grill- just put them under the broiler for the same amount of time (5 min)
