1 bunch fresh spinach thinly sliced
5 scallions thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper finely chopped
1 c. corn kernels fresh or frozen
1 jalapeno discard seeds and mince
2 Tbsp. Extravagonzo Red Chili Culinary Oil
2 Tbsp. Fresh Cilantro
2 tsp. ground cumin
1 ½ tsp. salt
¼ tsp. black pepper
4 oz. cream cheese
½ c. Green Lava
15 whole jalapenos sliced in half lengthwise seeds removed and discarde
1/3 c. cheddar cheese shredded
1/3 c. panko bread crumbs

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

2. Heat a medium skillet over medium high heat. Add Extravagonzo Red Chili Culinary Oil, spinach, scallions, bell pepper, corn, minced jalapeno, Fresh Cilantro, cumin, salt, and pepper.

3. Cook stirring often until spinach and bell pepper are softened.

4. In a medium bowl mix together the cream cheese and Green Lava until smooth.

5. Add the spinach mixture and stir to combine.

6. Place jalapeno halves on a baking sheet cut side up. Fill each jalapeno with creamy spinach mixture. Sprinkle the cheese over each filled jalapeno. Sprinkle the panko bread crumbs on top of the cheese.

7. Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes if you prefer a little crunch left in the jalapeno, or 20 minutes for a softer jalapeno.
