1/2 gallon whole milk
3 T white vinegar
1 package bacon, cooked, chopped

1 T Harvest smoked chaabani olive oil
~8 jalapeños, halved and seeded, the amount of peppers may vary

Preheat oven to 400.
Heat milk until just about simmering. Stir in vinegar until curds separate from the whey and turn off heat. Let sit for 5 minutes and then drain in a fine mesh colander.

Fill the halved peppers with cheese mixture, drizzle with syrup and bake until cheese melts and peppers are tender, only about 10-15 minutes.
