Cheesy goodness with a kick from jalapeno is what you will be enjoying with this fantastic dip! Serve warm with chips or veggies for the most amazing dip!
Rub jalapenos with olive oil and season with garlic salt and pepper.
Reduce heat on the grill pan to medium. Place the jalapenos on the grill to sear on all sides, around 5 minutes.
Remove jalapenos from the grill. Let cool for a few minutes. Remove seeds and dice jalapeno. Set aside.

Notes
Note 1: Regular cream cheese or low-fat cheese works well too!Note 2: Again regular sour cream can be used. I prefer using low-fat ingredients when I can.Note 3: I use Farmer's Pantry Honey Butter Cornbread Crisps for the topping.
