I always loved jalapeno poppers from fast food joints when I was younger, long before I became Vegan. I hadn’t had any jalapeno poppers for quite a while, and I definitely never had the pleasure of Vegan Jalapeno Poppers. I decided to recreate them, vegan-style of course! I eat much healthier now than I used to when I was younger, so I made them pretty healthy. Jalapenos have some awesome health benefits!

When you bite into these poppers you get that creamy filling surrounded by the spicy, delicious jalapeno. It’s an amazing comfort food. It’s perfect for an appetizer, parties, or just a side dish. I wouldn’t blame you if you just ate them on their own for a meal (haha, because I did)!

I ate half of these with dinner, and then finished the rest the next day for lunch! You know, I think they tasted even better the next day. To serve them as leftovers I simply put them in the oven at 350F for about 5 minutes. They were so good.
