Combining spicy jalapenos, creamy goat cheese, savory Italian sausage, and crispy bacon, this recipe offers a tantalizing mix of flavors and textures that will delight your taste buds.

Ingredients:

8 jalapeno peppers
110g
8 oz goat cheese
230g
16 oz italian sausage
450g
8 strips bacon
100g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven and Prepare Baking Sheet:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
2. Prepare Jalapeños:
- Wash the jalapeño peppers thoroughly.
- Cut off the stems of the jalapeños.
- Slice each jalapeño in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes. This can be done using a small spoon or a knife. Be careful while handling the peppers; wearing gloves is recommended.
3. Stuff Jalapeños with Goat Cheese:
- Take about a tablespoon of goat cheese and stuff each jalapeño half with it. Press the cheese gently to ensure it sticks well inside the pepper.
4. Wrap with Italian Sausage:
- Divide the Italian sausage into 16 equal portions.
- Flatten each portion in your hand and wrap it around the stuffed jalapeño halves, ensuring it covers the peppers completely. Press gently to make sure the sausage stays in place.
5. Wrap with Bacon:
- Wrap each sausage-covered jalapeño with a strip of bacon. Ensure the bacon wraps tightly around the sausage with the ends tucked underneath to secure it. If necessary, use toothpicks to hold the bacon in place.
6. Bake the Armadillo Egg Bombs:
- Place the bacon-wrapped jalapeños onto the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are spaced evenly apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the sausage is fully cooked and the bacon is crispy and golden brown.
7. Serve:
- Remove the armadillo egg bombs from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
- Serve warm as an appetizer or main dish. Enjoy these flavorful, keto-friendly treats!

Tips:

- Wear gloves when handling the jalapenos to avoid irritation.

- Soften the goat cheese before stuffing the jalapenos for easier handling.

- Ensure the Italian sausage completely covers the stuffed jalapenos to maintain the shape and hold in flavors.

- Use toothpicks to secure the bacon strips if they don't stay in place during cooking.

- Bake the armadillo eggs on a wire rack placed over a baking sheet to allow the bacon to crisp up on all sides.

These Keto Armadillo Egg Bombs are an amazing low-carb, high-flavor treat that will be a hit at any gathering. With a perfect blend of heat, creaminess, and smokiness, they're sure to become a favorite! Enjoy them hot and savory, straight from the oven.
