jalapenos – We Aren't Chefs

Stuffed Jalapenos

Kristin W. — Sun, 18 Aug 2019 18:29:06 +0000

Ingredients

Jalapeños
Cream cheese (Philly's of course!)
Thick bacon

I suggest buying the jalapeños and letting them sit a week to soften (and hotter!). They cook better and don’t have as much of crunch when cooked.

Directions

Cut jalapeños in half
Clean out seeds
Stuff with cream cheese
Wrap in a half of piece of bacon, use a toothpick to secure if needed

Can grill, do in the oven, or even better in the Air Fryer at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes. For making a large batch to freeze — lay them on a tray with parchment paper then toss in the freezer. Once they are frozen, toss them all in a freezer bag and take what you need when you need it.

Noisy Pinto Beans

I’ve been experimenting with beans in my pressure cooker and through some trial and error I have made wonderful pinto beans with various meat. I first made some with peppered bacon and the latest I created included ham.

First, I soak the beans overnight. Then, using a hot mason jar, add beans to a little over half way. Then this is where you can mix it up. In the pic below, it includes ham, onion, garlic, jalapeños and black pepper and I do not add salt. When I go to use the beans that’s when I add salt. Once you have your raw ingredients in, fill up the rest of the jar with boiling water leaving 1″ head space. I’ve also tried it with peppered bacon as well as vegetarian and so far the bacon is the house favorite.

Pressure can for 75 minutes at 11 pounds.

Warm tortilla up and put in a couple spoonful's of taco meat, then add two slices of cheese and desired amount of jalapenos.

Once you have all the enchiladas wrapped up and placed in the pan, pour the enchilada sauce over the top.
Place the the rest of the pepper jack cheese on top of the enchiladas and add more jalapenos if you wish.
Then sprinkle the Mexican cheese on top covering it up.
