Stuffed Jalapenos with Goat Cheese & Corn
makes 12

Prepare:
12 jalapenos
Combine & stuff jalapenos with:
1 c cooked chicken, minced
1/2 c roasted corn kernels
4 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/3 c jalapeno, minced (from prepared jalapenos)
1/4 c each: scallions, chopped

1/4 tsp. ground cumin
salt to taste
Combine; sprinkle with:
1/4 c tortilla chips, crushed
1/4 tsp. chili powder
Serve with:
Red pepper sauce

Preheat grill to medium-low.

Prepare jalapenos for stuffing by first slicing off a side (reserve for filling).
Then seed chiles by scaping out insides with a spoon,

Combine chicken with the rest of the stuffing ingredients - season with salt to taste.
Stuff each jalapeno with about 2 T. of the mixture.

Combine chips and chili powder in a plastic bag, then sprinkle over each jalapeno.
Grill chiles until charred and tender but not mushy, 5-8 minutes.
To serve, spoon pepper sauce on plate and top with jalapenos

Red pepper sauce:
2 red bell peppers
1/2 c olive oil
1/3 c chopped fresh cilantro
2 T. fresh lime juice
Salt to taste

Preheat grill to medium-high.
Grill peppers until charred on all sides, about 10 min.
Steam in a plastic bag for 10 min., then oool slightly.
Peel off charred skin and remove stem and seeds.
Puree in a blender (or processor) with oil, cilantro, lime juice, and salt.

These would be wonderful with the Walnut cream sauce, too!

How come you didn't fix anything like that when I was there Sharon?

I must admit she did teach me about the feel of dough.
Don't wait too long to tell someone you love them.

Those are purty.

Bet they taste great.

We have great jalapeños here. In fact, lots of them are exported to the U.S. I'll often toss together impromptu versions of stuffed jalapeños, using whatever strikes my mood - goat cheese, cream cheese, requezón (kind of Hispanic Ricotta), Monterey Jack, salsa mixed in, salsa on top, one type of salsa mixed in and another on top - whatever.

This does sound like a good combination. I'll have to try it some time.
If blueberry muffins have blueberries in them, what do vegan muffins have?

I have a question - when you roast jalapenos do they lose a bit of their heat? If not, aren't they quite spicy?

These sound GREAT! Garden didn't survive some hail earlier this spring so I will see if my Mom has peppers this year...wonder if Sweet Banana Peppers would work to cut out the heat???
