JALAPENO POPPERS THREE WAYS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cut the tops off the jalapeno peppers and clean out the core and seeds. Place them upright in an armadillo jalapeno cooker (available online). Alternatively, cut holes to fit the jalapenos in the bottom of a disposable aluminum baking pan and invert it onto a baking sheet.
• For the huevo ranchero filling:
• Beat the eggs and stir in the salsa, half the jack cheese, and salt and pepper, to taste. Fill 8 of the peppers 3/4 full and top with the remaining jack cheese and crushed chips.
• For the sausage pizza filling:
• Mix together the pizza sauce, crumbled sausage, and half the mozzarella. Fill 8 of the jalapenos and top with the remaining mozzarella.
• For the peanut butter filling:
• Put the peanut butter into a plastic bag and cut off a corner to make a pastry bag. Squeeze the peanut butter into the remaining peppers making sure that they are filled all the way down. Top with a spoonful of jelly.
• Bake the poppers for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the peppers are soft.

BAKED JALAPENO POPPERS

Steps:

• Using your food processor, combine cream cheese, cheese, cumin (if using) and cayenne until well mixed.
• In a separate bowl combine eggs, milk and 2 teaspoons of the Essence (or to taste).
• In another dish, mix together the breadcrumbs and 4 teaspoons of the Essence (or to taste).
• Using gloves, fill each pepper with about a tablespoon of filling depending on the size of the pepper. I find filling all the peppers first before moving on to the next step works best for me.
• Dip each filled pepper into the flour, then into the egg mixture and finally into the breadcrumbs.
• At this point the peppers can be frozen on cookie sheets. Just pop into the oven frozen when you need them.
• Cook at 350°F for 30 minutes on a greased pan. Easy release foil or parchment paper works well too.
• To cut down on the heat when eating, serve with sour cream.
