Grilled Pepper Poppers

Posted on August 22, 2011February 23, 2013 by Lanie Fioretti

One of the final holdouts in the garden this time of year is jalapeño peppers. As long as they get water they will keep producing right up until the first freeze. My favorite recipe for jalapeños is Grilled Pepper Poppers.

    Do you put the mixture you made with the tomatoes and stuff on the peppers after they are grilled with the cheese?

      Mix all ingredients then stuff the halved peppers, then grill (didn’t finish my email to you!).
