Ingredients:
12 large Jalapenos
1 container of Tofutti (or other vegan brand) Cream Cheese
1-2 cups of Homemade Breadcrumbs (recipe below)
Salt (to taste)
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Start by washing the Jalapenos and cutting them in half lengthwise. You might want to wear gloves as I found out the hard way that they burn your skin. Make sure to remove all seeds and ribs. If you miss any, there will be more heat. Place the Jalapeno halves on a pan and use a butter knife to spread the cream cheese on/into the halves. (The first time I made these I found that the cream cheese wasn't as flavorful as I liked and needed some salt added. You can mix a little salt into the cream cheese before you spread it or sprinkle on top.)Now use a spoon to spread on a layer of the bread crumbs. Bake for 30 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes then enjoy. (Do not eat the stems)
