California Dreams Ingredients
Method
California Dreams Preparation
Prepare the Jalapenos
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the jalapenos in half lengthwise and remove the seeds for a milder flavor, or keep them for more heat.
Make the Filling
In a bowl, mash the avocados and mix in the lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Stir in the shredded Monterey Jack cheese until well combined.
Stuff the Jalapenos
Spoon the avocado and cheese mixture into each jalapeno half, pressing down gently to fill them well.
Bake
Place the stuffed jalapenos on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Serve warm as a delicious appetizer or snack.
