Preheat grill. Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until onion begins to soften, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and sauté until onion is browned, about 3 more minutes. Remove from heat. In large bowl, mix together onion and cream cheese, adding salt and pepper to taste. Add 1 ½ cups each cheddar and monterey jack, stirring until well combined. In a separate small bowl, combine remaining 2 Tbsp each cheddar and monterey jack cheese and set aside. Fill each jalapeño with 1-2 Tbsp cheese filling.
