Jalapeno peppers stuffed with spicy buffalo chicken and blue cheese and wrapped with bacon!

A little while ago I came across a recipe for bacon wrapped buffalo chicken jalapeno poppers on Copy Kat Recipes that sounded so good! Unfortunately I was all snacked out after the big football game so I very reluctantly set the recipe aside for another time. Although I resisted making them for a while, over the weekend I broke down and made them using some leftover cooked shredded chicken from the freezer. I did not really stand a chance, I mean this recipe combines two irresistible snacks, jalapeno poppers and buffalo chicken wings, into one and then wraps them up in bacon and I just had to find out how amazing the combination was!

I made a few changes to the recipe starting out by pre-roasting the jalapeno peppers a bit to help ensure that they are nice and tender by the time the bacon is done cooking. I commonly like to pair blue cheese with buffalo chicken so I added some to the stuffed jalapenos but I went easy on the blue cheese and mellowed it out with some cheddar for those that are not as appreciative of blue cheese as I am. To make up for it I served the bacon wrapped buffalo chicken jalapeno poppers with some blue cheese sauce for dipping and I also provided carrot and celery sticks for even more dipping pleasure.
