GAG Recipe Challenge- Grilled Jalapeno Poppers

1 lb of jumbo jalapeno peppers
1 lb of smart ground
1 package of Fat Free Cream cheese
1 package turkey bacon
1 packet of taco seasoning
Water

Half the peppers long ways. Remove seeds and veins from peppers. (Keep in small bowl for later). Mix smart ground and taco seasoning in skillet following package directions. Heat until water is absorbed. Add jalapeno seeds, veins, & Cream Cheese to skillet with meat mixture. If you don't want it spicy then leave out seeds and veins. Fill pepper halves with meat mixture. Put 2 halves together so they form whole pepper. Wrap with bacon and secure with toothpicks. Grill for 1 hour or until bacon is completely cooked. Enjoy!

This is a recipe that I modified from one with a ton of fat and calories to one with little fat and less than 1/4 of the calories. It tastes so good you will think that you are eating bad even though you aren't.
