Once again I’m a day late, but for good reason. I didn’t have an idea for this week’s post. That was until now!

We are leaving for a week’s vacation and needing to use up all the fresh food we have in the fridge. With a bag of 8 jalapeño peppers and football on the TV, Poppers were begging to be made.

I also had a lot of pimento cheese with jalapeños to use up, and a new recipe was born. 🥰

Southern Jalapeño Poppers

Ingredients:

• Fresh jalapeños, sliced lengthwise and seeded
• Thin sliced salami or crumbled bacon
• Pimento cheese – we used Costco’s jalapeño brand that is so yummy.
• Chives
• Pecans, chopped
• Cheddar cheese
• Salt, to taste
• Honey

Preheat oven to 400.

Layer each jalapeño with the ingredients in the order listed, except the salt and honey.

Bake for 11 minutes or until fully melted. Sprinkle with salt and and drizzle with honey.

These turned out so delicious, but they have a kick! Have a cold drink ready to cool your palette.

See y’all next week.
