::Hot Stuff::
Once the family leaves this blog will move back to its regularly scheduled program of quilting, not food.
But we’ve been cooking, not quilting. I have some pies for the fourth, but we always fall back on our lip-smacking, beer gulping starter.
Perfect for the 4th.
The photographed version is made with sweet peppers for those who don’t like it hot!
Introducing our version of Jalapeno Poppers. I use to make these in Mexico on our travels to Guerrero.
1) Cut your jalapenos (or sweet peppers) in half lengthwise and deseed them with a spoon. Wear gloves or plan on not touching any sensitive body parts later.
2) Stuff full with a salty feta. My favorite is from Trader Joe’s and is packaged in a yellow/green bag.
3) Grill on a hot grill till undersides are pretty toasted.
Some will be mild and some super hot.
I recently had the sweet peppers at my friend Noelle’s, stuffed with goat cheese and wrapped in proscuitto. Trying those this round too.
Enjoy your 4th, I hope you are surrounded by friends and family!
Oh yum! I bet they go excellent with an ice cold beer.
I could have used #1 a few years ago. Didn’t realize how hot my fingers would get and how long it would last. Couldn’t wear my contact lens for a few days or touch just about any part of my body either!
Your Jalapeno Poppers look YUMMY!
oh, teehee
Isn’t it funny – If we aren’t sewing we are cooking! Looks yum
now that I know you’re making peppers I’m coming by – ha, ha. I’ll call you the morning, we came home early 🙂
can’t wait to see you!
Yum! I bet my girls would love the sweet version. We are addicted to feta in all forms here.
only second to goat cheese here.
Lovin’ your Whitecaps shirt… being a resident of Greater Vancouver I can respect your devotion to “football”. Either that or you got it at a thrift store ;o)
Good eye! My in-laws were the general managers of the team in the late 70s-early 80s. The shirt was my mother-in-laws.
Happy Independence Day Katie – enjoy your family and your delicious peppers.
