CAUTION! IF USING HABENAROS, USE OWN DISCRETION AS TO PEPPER PROPORTIONS. Maybe make some jalapeno and some habenaros.

Be sure to de seed peppers accordingly depending on your tolerance for oral agony

Answer 3

I like them chopped and fried with eggs for breakfast.

You could make salsa and can it.

You could slice them and can them for pizza as someone suggested.

I'd BET they'd be ok if you chopped them in a food processor and put a bit of lime juice and maybe olive oil and froze them in ice cube trays then put in a bag in the freezer to pull out at will.  I am speculating as I have not tried it.

If you don't like the heat, remove the seeds and spines.

Answer 4

Perhaps this: 8 large jalapenos

1 pkg cream cheese

1 cup cheddar cheese

dash of garlic powder

dash of salt

hickory smoked bacon

Split jalapenos in half length wise and remove the seeds. Mix Cream Cheese and Cheddar together adding spices.

Stuff peppers generously and place in baking dish. Cover peppers with generous slice of bacon.

Bake at 450 till bacon is crisp.

Answer 5

pizza

Answer 6

HUMMUS WITH ROASTED JALAPENO

Split the jalapeno down the middle and discard the seeds unless you want to make HOT hummus. Wash your fingers and hands well after handling the hot peppers and keep them away from lips/eyes for the remainder of the day (or use rubber gloves).

Roast (optional) the jalapeno on your gas grill or burner. To roast, place peppers on the grill at 350F for 4-5 minutes per side. (Or peppers may be used as-is).

Combine all the ingredients in a food processor or blender and blend for a couple minutes until smooth.
