CREAM CHEESE RANCHY JALEPENO BITES

8 jalapenos
1 block Philadelphia Cream Cheese
Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing
16 medium thawed fresh raw deveined shrimp clean
8 pieces peppered bacon
Worcestershire sauce
minced garlic

Filling Preparation:

Let cream cheese sit out to room temperature. Mix cream cheese with a healthy squirt of ranch dressing, followed by a bit of minced garlic with about 3 dashes of Worcestershire. Mix well.

In the meantime, preheat oven to 375°F, and half your 8 pieces of bacon vertically.

Preparation:

Cut jalapenos in half. De-seed, leaving shell. Fill jalapenos with cream cheese mixture. Place raw shrimp on top of cream cheese mixture inside jalapeno. Take your vertically cut peppered bacon and wrap shrimp jalapenos in spiral motion.

Place bacon wrapped jalapeno bites on cookie sheet, (or any bake-able dish), bake at 375°F for about 30 minutes, or until shrimp is done.

You may toothpick these if you like, but I have had good luck with cream cheese mixture being a natural adhesive. Take out, let cool, (not too much) and enjoy!
