Bacon & Jalapeno Popper Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
We grow jalapenos every year in our garden, and I am always trying to come up with new things to do with them.  Recently, I was watching The Great Food Truck Race, and there was a food truck that did vamped up grilled cheese sandwiches (Roxy’s Grilled Cheese) & it just hit me – bam – right there!
Oh.  my.  gosh.  They turned out ubelievable – an explosion of flavor on the taste buds for sure.  This will be one I will be making agian, and again, and again, and again.
Combine the cream cheese & shredded mexican cheese. Â Spread it evenly between the 4 slices of bread. Â Top with the cooked bacon. Â Divide the jalapenos between all 4 slices of bread. Â Top with the remaining slices of bread.

I wanted to make this but you list monterey jack cheese in the ingredients but speak about mexican cheese in the directions. Which one should I be using?
You can use any kind of Mexican cheese that you want. Mont. Jack, pepperjack, etc.
Had to pin this to my food board. Will get on this for next weekend. Do you know of a good brand of pre-made jalapenos that I could substitute?

One tip that would make these EXTRA tasty is to spread mayonnaise on the slices of bread (no need for butter in the pan!) and fry as usual. DELICIOUS!!
