Vicky's Jalapeno Wraps

Boy it has been a long time since I have posted a new recipe.  Here is a new one that we tried this week that was really good.  Depending on the pepper it can be a little spicy.  But if you are daring, give them a try.  I was talking to a gal, Vicky, that I know and she was the one that shared this recipe with me.  She said that her and her husband sometimes like to have them as a meal.  There is not a true recipe, just some steps to put them together.

Jalapenos, as many as needed, stems removed, cut in half the long way and seeded.
Cream cheese in the tub, she uses onion & chives, I used the garden vegetable which I thought was really good.
Pre-cooked bacon that you can buy at the grocery store.
One tube of refrigerated crescent roll dough, or as much as needed depending on the amount of jalapeno halves.

Once you have your jalapenos cleaned out, take the cream cheese and fill the inside of the jalapeno.  I had to microwave my cream cheese a little to soften.  Cut or tear one of the pieces of pre-cooked bacon in half and place one half on top of the cream cheese stuffed jalapeno mostly covering the cream cheese.  Now you will want to take off one crescent roll and cut it in half so you have two triangles.  Take one of the triangles and roll it around the stuffed jalapeno.  Please cheese side up on a cookie sheet and bake as directed on the crescent roll dough package.
