#LiquidGold5 appetizer bacon BBQ cheese cheesy football National Cheese Day recipe snack snacks tailgate Velveeta

Bacon Wrapped Queso Stuffed Jalapeños

This post is sponsored by VELVEETA® . All opinions are my own.

bacon wrapped queso stuffed jalapenos with VELVEETA® #LiquidGold5 (ad)It’s the season for entertaining outdoors! The time when we clean up the patio furniture, dust off the trusty barbecue pit, invest in plenty of summer toys for the kids and invite all our friends and family over for some good eats fresh off the grill. For National Cheese Day, which is June 4th, I came up with a special recipe that’s cheesy and delicious, with only a handful of ingredients that are perfect for adding to the grill with your hot dogs, burgers, vegetables and any other summertime favorites. One of my favorite finger foods, bacon wrapped queso stuffed jalapeños!

bacon wrapped queso stuffed jalapenos with VELVEETA® #LiquidGold5 (ad)Queso dip is already a favorite at our parties, and this one just puts it right in the middle of the jalapeños with only a few more additions. It’s crispy and flavorful, with just the right amount of bite from the jalapeños and queso. Your guests will be wowed and it’s so fun to make!

Ingredients:

  • 8 jalapeños, sliced in half and deseeded
  • 1-2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
  • 2 ounces VELVEETA® (NOTE: a single serving of VELVEETA® is 1 oz.)
  • 4 tablespoons drained canned tomatoes and green chilies
  • panko crumbs
  • 16 bacon slices

Directions:

bacon wrapped queso stuffed jalapenos with VELVEETA® #LiquidGold5 (ad)Begin by slicing the jalapeños in half and removing the seeds inside. Spread the cream cheese thinly on the inside of each half. In a microwave safe bowl, combine the tomato mixture with the VELVEETA®, cooking 20-30 seconds at a time and stirring in between.

Campfire Tex-Mex Nacho Fries

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 25 minutes

Total Time: 45 minutes

Campfire Tex-Mex Nacho Fries

These Campfire Tex-Mex Nacho Fries are the perfect kick you need in order to complete your easy campfire feast this summer!

Ingredients

  • 1 (27 oz) package frozen seasoned fries
  • 2 ounces VELVEETA® loaf, shredded (NOTE: a single serving of VELVEETA® is 1 oz.)
  • 1/4 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup jalapeno slices
  • 1 roma tomato
  • 1 corn on the cob, grilled then kernels cut

Instructions

  1. Make two bowls with four pieces of heavy duty aluminum foil. For the first bowl, place the two sheets of foil in opposite directions of one another, making a sort of cross. Bend the edges up, and fold them over to connect with one another, making a bowl. Follow the same directions with the second bowl, then split the fries between the two bowls.
  2. Place the fries over direct heat in the barbecue, folding the edges up so that they are almost closed on the bowl. Shake the "bowl" around every 8-10 minutes so they don't stick to the foil. Close the barbecue to bring the heat up as close as you can to 400 degrees, and only open in order to shake the fries and check how done they are.
  3. After about 30 minutes or so, fries will start to feel crispy and turn a golden brown. At this point, add the shredded VELVEETA®, then pull the sides up again to allow it all to melt.
  4. If you have corn on the cobb, add it to the grill so you can use some fresh corn for your nacho fries. Heat in indirect heat on top rack of the grill, or off to the sides if it's a smaller grill. Once the nacho fries seem almost done, move the corn towards the heat to get a bit of char on them.
  5. Check the VELVEETA, it should be melted after a few minutes. Look at that Liquid Gold!
  6. Sprinkle with some rinsed black beans.
  7. Then add some nacho sliced jalapenos.
  8. Now add the tomatoes.
  9. Then remove the corn from the grill and slice some kernels off with a sharp knife, then add the corn.
  10. Now they are ready to serve!
  11. Enjoy!

    I make these without queso before and they were good. Has to try it this way next time but just a word of advise wear rubber gloves when you cut and scrap the seeds and veins out. If you get that juice on your hands enough they will get in your pores and burn. But they are delicious.

    What if you don’t have a grill to make the bacon wrap jalapenoes. Can you roast them in the over? If so at what temp.

[Sponsored]: Summertime is coming and will be here before we know it! You all know that I love easy meals during the warmer months, and I also love a good meal in a bowl. It’s also Vidalia Onion season 🧅 so I paired this seasonal favorite with pan-seared shrimp and veggies as a light rice bowl using your choice of grains.☺️This meal is an absolute delight!

Get the recipe and all the Vidalia Onion details by clicking the link in my profile or desktop users can click here for the recipe >> https://mamaharriskitchen.com/2021/06/pan-seared-shrimp-veggie-rice-bowl-vidalia-onions/ .

Also make sure to grab some Vidalia Onions from your local grocer before they are out of season in late August/early September.☀️

(AD) There has been a lot of cooking going on this year, so I’ve tried to make life a bit easier by getting creative with my leftovers. These pulled pork totchos are a great example of leftovers with a few key ingredients to create something new to keep our meals exciting. Adding a few key ingredients like @lamorenausa adobo peppers and jalapeños and carrots definitely livens up something simple. La Morena peppers are hand selected, using only the highest quality peppers to bring you authentic home style flavors of Mexico. I purchased my La Morena items from my local Safeway, but you can find them at your favorite grocery store in the international food section. #PayItForwardwithLM #VivaLaMorena #WeCanWithLaMorena 
 
INGREDIENTS:
- 32 oz tater tots
- 2 cups shredded cheese (Mexican blend + Pepper Jack)
- 2 cups prepared bbq pulled pork (check my pulled pork sliders recipe!)
- 1/2 can La Morena Adobo Peppers & Sauce
- 2 tablespoons sour cream 
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing
- 1 cup pico de Gallo
- 1/2 cup guacamole
- 3 chopped green onions 
- 3-4 La Morena jalapeños and carrots, sliced

INSTRUCTIONS:
Prepare tater tots as instructed, in air fryer or oven. Heat oven to 450°. 
Cover the bottom of a large cast iron skillet with the cooked tater tots. 
Top with 1 1/2 cup of cheese. 
Combine the chopped adobo peppers and sauce with the prepared bbq pulled pork. Spread the pulled pork mixture on top of the tater tots, then top with the remaining cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
Top with sour cream, ranch, pico de Gallo, guacamole, green onions, and sliced jalapeños and carrots.

Enjoy!! 😋

This year I’ve created Cranberry Pistachio Citrus Cookies to share as my contribution. 🍪 I know that a lot of things have turned “virtual” throughout this year, but a little virtual bake-off is a fun way to connect with some of your favorite people!

Hello Instagram fam! 💖 There’s some new faces around here and it’s been a while since I showed mine!

I’m Dawn, creator of Mama Harris’ Kitchen, and I’m so glad you’re here with me! In this space I share my family-friendly recipes for all occasions, whether it be a 30-minute meal for those busy weeknight dinners or a full spread for entertaining a crowd - and everything in between.

Mama Harris’ Kitchen began back in 2012, in fact it’s 8 years this month! 🥳  What started as a way to document my newfound cooking hobby while managing my “new” life as a stay-at-home wife and mom to a 1 and 3 year along with teens and preteens, and it quickly grew into what it is now - a recipe resource for busy families like mine that enjoy flavorful and comforting home-cooking using pantry staples along with fresh and local ingredients as often as possible. 

🍿Five fun facts about me:
1. I LOVE elephants! 🐘 I collect a lot of elephant items, whether it’s trinkets or  artwork, notepads etc. I love what elephants symbolize and I truly love anything elephant related.
2. I’m a total plant lady! 🌱 I have about 35 houseplants, give or take, and there’s still more on the list of wants. Plants have become such a peaceful outlet for me, and I feel that they really center me within my space. I love the element plants bring to your space and the feel of your home with them in it, and new leaves are so exciting!
3. I have seven tattoos and I have plans for about eight more. 💉 Those that know me aren’t surprised, but those that follow me here tend to find it a bit surprising. 🙃
4. I’ve been a mother for a long time, over half my life! I’ve also been a lot of different “types” of mom - teen mom, single mom, working mom, stepmom, stay at home mom, PROUD mom, military mom, mother in law - the list goes on. No matter what, motherhood looks different for everyone and there’s unique challenges and experiences each mother faces. Please be gentle with yourself! ❤️At the end of the day we’re all just trying our best!
5. I’m a bit of an introvert, and often struggle with the “social” aspect of social media. I tend to go silent sometimes, but I’m working on it.

☀️Thank you for joining me here!
