Jalapeno Poppers Anyone... Shoot me 15 /52

My computer wont let me go to our pictures so I found one from last summer already in my blog post to use this week for my shoot me. Brian & I workin in the kitchen makin jalapeno poppers with jalapenos from our garden.


We ate alot that night... then I froze the rest, we still got about 1/2 gallon bag full :)

Jalapeno Poppers

Ingredients
2-1/4 pounds cream cheese, softened
4 (8 ounce) packages shredded Cheddar cheese
3 tablespoons and 1/4 teaspoon bacon bits
2-1/4 pounds jalapeno peppers, seeded and halved
3 cups and 2 tablespoons milk
3 cups and 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 cups and 2 tablespoons dry bread crumbs
25 cups oil for frying
Directions

In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, Cheddar cheese and bacon bits. Spoon this mixture into the jalapeno pepper halves.Put the milk and flour into two separate small bowls. Dip the stuffed jalapenos first into the milk then into the flour, making sure they are well coated with each. Allow the coated jalapenos to dry for about 10 minutes. Dip the jalapenos in milk again and roll them through the breadcrumbs. Allow them to dry, then repeat to ensure the entire surface of the jalapeno is coated. In a medium skillet, heat the oil to 365 degrees F ( 180 degrees C). Deep fry the coated jalapenos 2 to 3 minutes each, until golden brown. Remove and let drain on a paper towel.

Happy 1 year anniversary mom...

I'm very proud to say that today, May 15 makes 1 year since my momma decided to give up alchohol! We are so proud of her. She will always be a recovering alcoholic BUT she is one strong lady & she will make it! Shes stubborn too, when she sets her mind to do something watch out...

"You Rock Mom!"

The power of prayer: I prayed for years that God would make my momma stop drinkin,(I actually prayed for he to make her yucky sick when she wanted to drink, make her not want it). She was mean, nasty & rude when she drank plus she was slowly killin herself. Well in Gods own time (not mine, lol) he answered my prays on May 15 2010... she woke up that mornin & had a talk with herself and hasnt had a drop since! Funny thing is...... She gets yucky sick when she thinks about the liquor! lol I love it. She is a much happier person since she stopped drinkin & we love her so much.
