Fire Roasted Jalapenos Recipe

Jalapeño Roaster:

Feeling roasty? Don't hesitate to add this roaster to your grillware
collection. Its nonstick coating is PTFE- and PFOA-free for safe
grilling and easy clean up. The jalapeño roaster holds up to 16
medium-sized peppers and can be used in the grill or oven so you can
enjoy this spicy accessory year-round.

Stuffed Jalapeño Peppers Recipe

16 medium-sized jalapeño peppers* 3-4 oz. cream cheese, softened 3/4-1 cup shredded cheddar cheese 1 clove garlic, diced 2-3 green onions, sliced 2-3 sun dried tomatoes (oil-packed), chopped 8 slices bacon, halved (optional) Salt and pepper to taste Water-soaked toothpicks (5 minutes of soaking) Preheat grill to medium. Cut off top of each pepper and carefully core the pepper, removing all seeds. If you do not have a jalapeño corer, a vegetable peeler is a good kitchen tool for hollowing out peppers. Remember the oils in jalapeño peppers are very hot, so take care not to touch your face or eyes. Place the peppers upright in roasting holes. In bowl, mix cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic, onion, tomatoes, salt and pepper. Put mixture in pastry bag and pipe cheese evenly into peppers. A knife or spoon may also be used to stuff the peppers. If desired, wrap upper half of each piece with a 1/2 slice of bacon and skewer with water-soaked toothpicks. The water helps keep the toothpicks from catching fire. Grill peppers until bacon is done, about 20-30 minutes. Serve hot. *The size of jalapeño peppers may vary by grocer, region and season. If peppers are too small, skewer them with water-soaked toothpicks to keep peppers from falling through roasting holes.

Happy Spring!!!

Happy Spring to All of You!

This is just a sample of some of the new items I'm working on right now.
I work slow and the totes sell fast.
I "guess" that's good,
but Heaven forbid that I make a mistake!
None have hung around long enough to make it to my website -

Our Bradford pears didn't make much of a showing this year.
We had a freeze just as they were about to reach full bloom.

The wild cherries and the redbuds have made up for it.
The dogwoods are late this year.
I guess they're just biding their time until they're sure of the weather.
