Thread: September Recipe Challenge Is In the House!!!

Welcome to our Monthly Recipe Challenge!

This month's recipe challenge is going to be:

Cooking with PEPPERS!!! -Whether it's chili peppers, sweet peppers, whatever kind of peppers...it's up to you!

Here is how the challenge works:

To enter the challenge, simply reply to this post with the recipe you plan on making. Once you make it, take a photo of your dish, post the recipe in the "Monthly Recipe Challenge" forum, and tell us about the recipe you chose. Did you love it or hate it? Did it need something different? Next time you make it would you change anything?

No matter how the dish turns out, we will have a lot of fun trying new ingredients, testing our pallettes, and exploring new cooking adventures together!

Each participant will receive the gorgeous new Magenta Ribbon Award to "Spice" up their user profile with!

This sounds absolutely delicioso!

Mmmm that sounds good! I have no idea what I will make but I love peppers.will think of something....

I will have to think of something to make we call them chillies or capsicums here not peppers but they are the same thing only capsicums have no heat to them whatsoever.

Bill and I used to go to a little bar in Texarkana, where we drank beer and I ate these or their seafood-stuffed peppers. These were my favorites.

Taco-stuffed Jalapeños

12 to 15 fresh jalapeños
1 pound of lean ground beef
1 package of taco seasoning
2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese
2 cups of tortilla chips, crushed
Salsa and sour cream for condiments

1. Slice and scrape seeds and membrane that hold the seeds.
2. Prepare the taco meat according to the directions on the packet and let cool slightly.
3. Add 1 1/2 cups of cheddar cheese to the meat mixture.
4. Stuff pepper halves with meat/cheese mixture.
5. Sprinkle peppers with crushed tortilla chips.
6. Cover peppers with remaining cheese.

Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes or until peppers are soft and cheese is fully melted and gooey.
Let them cool slightly before eating and serve with salsa and sour cream.

I'm getting really hungry looking at this one. Yum,yum!!

That does sound good huh? I need to think of something still.
