Jalapeno Pepper Poppers (Whole30)

This recipe for Whole30 Pepper Poppers uses Chomps Grass fed Beef sticks, nut based Whole30 Compatible ‘cream cheese’ and a mix of peppers to create a family friendly snack that is satisfying for everyone.

It’s no secret that this family LOVES Chomps. I’ve been a loyal fan since 2016. It’s my not-so-secret Whole30 super star for keeping hanger at bay in the car and on the go as my emergency protein. My husband Nick brings one to work every single day – flavor will vary on his mood, and my son Talus eats a ‘meat stick’ post nap every day – almost always ‘the blue one’ aka sea salt.

I think we stock majority Sea Salt, Original, and Italian – though I am also very partial to the jalapeno!  You can try them here: or use my discount code for 20% off, ‘cookbycolor’

Although we eat Chomps daily, this is a recipe to jazz them up a bit and pair with healthy fat and colorful carbs for an easy and delicious way to entertain the family when a snacky mood strikes. Nick and I love jalapeno poppers so this is inspired by that. These allow the added bonus of easily modifying to have a non-spicy version for the kiddos.
