Description

Cut the vegetables into small pieces and finely chop the garlic and jalapeno. That’s why every bite of

this recipe ensures there’s plenty of delicious food.

You can use white cornbread or yellow cornbread, either works.

With a little patience and understanding, you too can choose good but mild jalapenos. So always look

for small, soft and green peppers everywhere. They should be free of conflict. Also remove roots and

seeds before cutting. Be sure to wash your hands thoroughly after handling jalapeno to avoid

accidentally touching your eyes.

Cheddar cheese, Pepper Jack cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, and Colby Jack work well with this recipe.

Jalapeno may not be used for people with sensitive mouths. Or replace it with some green peppers.

This recipe is quick to make, so plan ahead and have all your ingredients on hand.

This can also be combined and cooked into 8 or 9 dishes.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Cooling, after preparation, first let the plate cool slightly. Do not cook. Cover with two layers of plastic

wrap and aluminum foil. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 months. Remove from the refrigerator

about 40 minutes before cooking. Cook as directed.
