Boursin Stuffed Pickles

I will never forget the night I had Boursin cheese for the first time. A friend had brought it to a get-together. I was smitten. If I could stuff Boursin cheese into everything and anything, I would. But unfortunately, that's not realistic. However, stuffing it into Prosciutto wrapped Boursin stuffed pickles is completely realistic, especially because they are a great low-carb appetizer with only 4 ingredients, keto and gluten-free.

Stuffed pickles are popular any time of the year when you want a low-carb snack. They are a great finger food for parties, especially New Year's Eve parties.

That night my obsession with Boursin cheese was so obvious that my friend sent me home with the remainder of it claiming “it was better me than her." And afterward, when I told her that I couldn’t stop eating it, "I’m sorry," was all she said. At the time I didn’t understand why she would apologize.

There aren't as many pickle appetizers out there as there should be, so I am doing my part and adding this one to the world's pickle menu. And although I have always loved pickles, my love affair with Boursin cheese has been the most passionate of all my food love affairs. So my beloved Boursin seemed like the perfect stuffing for these guys. So, if you love stuffed pickles, you'll love this recipe!

🥘 Ingredients

These prosciutto wrapped pickles are a quick and easy appetizer because you only need a few ingredients to make them:

• whole pickles (dill)
• Boursin cheese
• prosciutto
• jalapenos * I use tamed Jalapenos

*See recipe card for quantities

📖Variations & Substitutions

• Cheese - You can use different flavors of Boursin cheese (I use garlic and herb). I don't recommend using cheddar cheese or another type of cheese.
• WW friendlier - use light Boursin cheese
• Prosciutto - you could substitute bacon strips or ham slices

🔪Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Cut pickles in half, lengthwise.

Use a small spoon to scoop out the center of each pickle half, creating a long well.

Don’t hollow pickle too much- it should look like this,

Use paper towel to thoroughly dry inside the cored pickle.

Finely chop jalapenos.

Mix Boursin cheese and jalapenos together.

Fill each pickle slice with about 2 teaspoons of Boursin cheese mixed with tamed jalapenos, dividing evenly between all pickles. * You could use a piping bag with a 1M tip, if you want this to look nicer.

Smooth out into an even layer.

Wrap 1 strip of prosciutto around each pickle half.

Secure it by tucking it under the pickle half and repeat, dividing prosciutto evenly between all pickles.

Bake until the prosciutto is crisp and the cheese is melted- about 15 minutes. Serve warm.

Once I tried Boursin cheese, I seriously couldn’t get enough and I started buying it EVERY FRIDAY NIGHT. My infatuation actually turned into a bit of an obsession. I finally understood why my friend had apologized.

But let's be real -  you don’t even have to do anything to Boursin cheese and it’s still amazing! However, if you are looking for Boursin cheese recipes that are low carb, keto, and or gluten-free you’re gonna love this one!!! The tangy flavors in these stuffed pickles are divine!

These days I don’t eat as much Boursin cheese as I did at the beginning and although I'm still madly in love with the stuff, I guess the infatuation just settled into a kind of deeper, less obsessive fondness. This is the cheese that I want in my life for the long run; I’m interested in a long-term relationship. And therefore, I need to indulge in moderation. If you also love Boursin cheese as well as pickles, and you're looking for recipes with pickles or Boursin cheese appetizers, then give this Boursin stuffed pickle a try for your next party!
