No it's not eggs, but the jalapeno and cheese stuffed ground beef takes the shape of an oval :) I don't know about you, but I have a husband who LOVES spicy food. This is a mildly spicy dish that even the kiddos ate up quick!
1 tsp. garlic powder
6 jalapeno pepper
1/2 c. pepper jack cheese
1 green bell pepper
1 onion
1 tbsp. coconut oil
2 lbs. ground beef
1/2 c. fresh made salsa
1 tbsp. chili powder
1 tsp. ground cumin
Slice stem tops off Jalapenos and seed vertically. I used a Butter knife to scrape out the seeds. Stuff each pepper with shredded cheese and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salsa (of desired spiciness) , chili powder,cumin,and garlic powder.
On a piece of foil, flatten out enough beef into 6 thin and flat rounds. Put a cheese stuffed jalapeno in the center of each and pull up sides to wrap all the way around. Pick it up in your hand to mold into a enclosed oval egg shape.
Grill on med high heat on both sides until thoroughly cooked. About 10-12 min remove from heat and set aside.
in a skillet saute the onion and bell pepper til onions are clear, then top each armadillo egg and serve!
SUPER easy and full of flavor!
