Total Time

Yield: 20 poppers, Serves 10 people
Ingredients
- 1 package (8 oz) of plant-based Beyond Burger® patties
- 10 large jalapeño peppers
- 4 ounces vegan cream cheese, or your vegan cheese of choice
- 6 tablespoons of shredded vegan Mexican blend cheese or vegan cheese of choice, divided use
- ¼ cup of sliced scallions
- ½ teaspoon of cumin
- ½ teaspoon of garlic powder
- Optional garnish: chopped cilantro
Directions
- Begin by preheating the oven to 350°F.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and hit with some cooking spray or oil. Add the Beyond Burger® patties and cook until browned (about 3 minutes each side), breaking them up with a spatula as they cook. Remove them from heat and cool.
- Cut the jalapeños in half lengthwise and scoop out the ribs and seeds.
- Mix the cheese, scallions, cumin, and garlic powder together in a bowl. Stir in about 2/3 of the cooled Beyond Burger crumbles from the skillet.
- Stuff each the pepper half with about a tablespoon of the filling. Arrange the stuffed peppers on a sheet pan lined with parchment or foil. Sprinkle the remaining crumbled Beyond Burger and 2 tablespoons shredded cheese on top of the peppers.
- Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes until jalapeños are cooked through and cheese is melted. Garnish with cilantro and admire your work. Devour!
