I combined protein rich cream cheese, diced jalapeƱos, shredded cheddar cheese and a little sour cream with the egg yolks to create an ultra creamy and delicious filling for my egg whites. All the delicious dairy added to the filling makes these a protein packed appetizer that everyone can enjoy!

PRO TIP: Use this handy deviled egg carrier to bring your eggs to the party!

I even threw in a dash or two of cayenne pepper to give it even more zip!

How To Make a Crunchy Topping

Since a jalapeƱo popper isn’t complete without that crispy crunch on the outside, I toasted up some panko bread crumbs with some garlic powder in a little butter and then sprinkled them on top of the deviled eggs.

It adds the perfect crunch and texture!

To finish them off I simply dusted each one with a little more cayenne pepper. I don’t think deviled eggs are complete without a little red on top.
