hahahaha! ZING! Nice follow up.
...we now return you to the originally scheduled program in progress... PURE UNADULTERATED POPPERS!
Looking though all the different pics got me wanting some poppers, plus SOMEONE had to steer the conversion away from RB and all her nasty innuendos... I tell you some of those comments were enough to make this frenchman blush!
. Anyways, I happened to have some large Jala's on hand so I thought what the hell! I diced up some bacon and purple onions then fried them both with a gob of minced garlic. The garlic was added a little before the bacon and onions were done. You really only want to cook garlic until it becomes aromatic. The onion, bacon and garlic were thrown into a bowl while I diced up a lovely serrano that was turning from green to yellow and orange. I also chopped up a bit of green onion (tops only) and dug out some cottage cheese. Everything was thrown into a bowl along with a few cranks of black pepper from the pepper mill and mixed.
After stuffing the peppers I topped with Kraft Tex Mex cheese which is a blend of Cheddar, Colby, and moteray jack. Because I don't have a fancy popper cooker stand like some people, and I didn't want to wait for the deep fryer, I put them in our little turbo oven and hit them with 10 minutes of convection cooking! Delish, but they could still use a little more serrano pepper. Maybe next time I'll throw in some crushed red peppers while cooking the bacon. That should kick it up a bit.

All I have to say, is... GRRRRR...rainbowberry said:LOL, I might be hot too. That avatar is old now, my hair doesn't look like that now, more like this
Actually from today after I had it cut it's even shorter. I've never had anyone use a chat up line on me anyway. Have I just hi-jacked this thread 100%? I think so.
Blister you get my highest designation...hot, blue, and righteous!
Cheers, TB.

I'm guessin' Dillo, Impy, Blister, AJ, TCG, maybe FiveStar, Quad, you, and myself will be "all in" on this. We need some Aussie's up in here as well as Omri to round it out. I have a feeling THP is going to jump in possibly. We need Passow too!
EVERYBODY!!
Cheers, TB.
