I have loved jalepeno poppers for as long as I can remember. I loved the combination of hot jalepons with cream cheese. MmmmmMMmmmmm... Well since I became vegan I hadn't been able to enjoy that combination...until NOW. Of course I have a pinterest and I am always seeing delicious looking recipes involving cream cheese and jalepenos. Usually I skip over them because I am vegan now so I thought I couldn't indulge in their deliciousness. That is, until I realized that I could use vegan cream cheese! DUH! So I found one post that I used for inspiration and I tweaked it a little. Here is the recipe I used.
Veganized Jalepeno Poppers
ingredients:
6 oz vegan cream cheese softened (the original calls for 8 but I didnt need that much)
1/2 a small can of minced or diced jalepenos ( I actually used a little more than half)
1 tube of vegan crescent roll dough (beware of hidden milk ingredients)
directions:
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees farenheit. Grease a cookie sheet. Combine your softened vegan cream cheese with the jalepenos in a bowl. Mix well enough that you will have cream cheese and jalepenos in every bite. Open your crescent roll dough and separate into 2 sheets. Pinch the seams together and lightly flatten the dough so you are left with 2 rectangular sheets of dough instead of 8 individual crescents. Spoon the mixture onto the dough and roll up cinnamon roll style. You should now have 2 long rolls. Cut them in equal pieces. I ended up with 8 per roll, 16 total. Place on the cookie sheet with cut sides down. Bake 11 to 13 minutes (mine took the full 13 minutes.) Let cool and enjoy!
