Oh boy, this recipe is a doozy.
I spotted it in my St. Paul Lutheran Church cookbook from Vernon, Texas and knew I had to make it.

“Armadillo eggs” are stuffed jalapenos wrapped in a sausage-cheese mixture. This recipe also called for rolling them in Shake n’ Bake mix, which I did.
This is a whopper of an appetizer. If you want to bring the heat to a party, or you want to surprise guests before dinner, this is a recipe to make.
Although it is spicy, it’s really good. I love stuffed jalapenos, and adding sausage and cheese to the OUTSIDE of them makes them even better.

You can stuff your jalapeno with whatever cheese you desire (cream cheese, mozzarella, jack) but I highly recommend stuffing them with pepper jack to kick the heat up even more.
This is a delightful little snack and would go great at your next football party…or maybe even Thanksgiving!
Enjoy!
