My wife came up with this as we wanted to bring a snack dish to the Mother's Day crawfish boil. It makes about 100 poppers.
Cut about 50 jalapeno peppers in half the long way leaving the stem on one side. Take out the seeds.
Fry up about 1 lb of chorizo and one pack of Jimmy Dean sausage draining off the oil.
Chop up about 1/2 onion, 2 garlic cloves, chives and 1/2 cup cilantro very finely.
Mix veg, herbs, sausage, 2 lbs of low fat cream cheese and 4 cups shredded cheese.
Cut 2 lbs of bacon in half.
Stuff the peppers with the sausage mixture and wrap it with the bacon. Bake at 375 F for 15 to 20 minutes. It's best to bake them on a rack so that the bacon fat drains away.Enjoy.

We do a similar version, but we use the whole jalapeño! :-)
Use both halves but you have a handle on one of them.
