Grilled Cheesy Jalapeno Peppers

May 20, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 16 Comments

Hi Everyone,

It was such a beautiful Saturday!  The sun was shining, it was warm and no wind!  Perfect day!  I got up early, did a little blogging, than headed to the Farmers Market and Trader Joe’s.  Than I came home, read my magazines outside, and then made a wonderful dinner.  I love this time of year, I get that spring fever feeling and I just want to be outside!

The Farmers Market had so many goodies today!  They had fat cherries, nectarines, peaches, apricots and so much more.  I swear I could go crazy buying everything in sight! Plus the smell of kettle corn, oh my gosh!  Do you know how hard it is to control yourself when you get whiffs of kettle corn?  I was a good girl and didn’t buy any, but I was tempted!  But here is what I bought!


You know me and my strawberries, I had to stock up!  Everything here is organic.  I do try to stick to organic, if I can.  I only spent $20.00 on all these goodies.  I have to be careful not to over buy because this week because I’ll be getting my CSA package, and I never know what there going to send me.

I also headed to Trader Joe’s and picked up some much-needed groceries.  We had nothing in my house!!  This is what I got there.

I didn’t buy any new items, just restocking my pantry.  I didn’t do to bad for $125.00.  I got chicken, trip tip, sirloin and shrimp, plus my  regular items.  I really do love the pricing of  Trader Joe’s.  Oh, by the way I updated my Trader Joe’s page.  For some reason my font changed and I had to re-type the whole page today.  It took my 3 hours.  What a pain in the behind.

I did get something crazy today!  I got a text message from my dog, and he said “If you know what is good for you, you better bring me my Trader Joe bones, or don’t bother coming home!” Geez!  What a mean dog!  Well when I was gone, my Husband ran out of bones, in panic he called me and said, what do I do?  I said go to Trader Joe’s and buy more.  He was like no way!  I don’t think my Husband has ever gone in TJ’s by himself.  So I told him to give them baby carrots.  He did that, but he said Samantha won’t eat them.    She would spit them out and say “Hell No!”, but the boy ate them.  When I came home  I gave Samantha a carrot  in front of him and you know what?  She took it and ate it.  My Husband was like no way she wouldn’t eat them when you weren’t home.  Well needless to say I got them their dog bones!  They were so happy!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Remember yesterday when I said I have a wonderful appetizer that I was going to make?  I made it and I love it!!!  I made a spicy Grilled Jalapeno Popper.  Oh my Gosh!!   They are amazing!  I like them better than regular Jalapeno Poppers.  I liked them so much I bought a jalapeno plant for my garden.  I’ll be planting that tomorrow morning!

These poppers are filled with shredded chicken, pepper jack cheese and cream cheese.  Holy Heavens is it good!!  Some of the jalapeno’s have more of a kick than the others, so you never know how hot it’s going to be until you take that bite.  To cool the heat down I served it with a side of my Ranch Dressing.  I was shocked my Husband said he liked my Ranch Dressing.  I told him it was made with yogurt and he looked at me in shock.  He doesn’t like yogurt.  I think he doesn’t on purpose because I love it!!!

I have to give you a warning though!  When you cook with jalapeno’s you should wear gloves.  The oil from them will burn, and burn for hours.  That happened to me once and I cried.  My hands were burning for hours, and I mean hours!  If you get it on your hand, don’t touch any part of your body or it will spread.  Wash your hands with soap for a long time.  So please wear gloves, use a paper towel or something when you cut them.  Also don’t breath when you cut them. The fumes start to cut my oxygen from my throat. I always cut them under cold water.  Yes, it’s the price you have to pay when you use hot peppers, but well worth it.  As you can tell it doesn’t stop me!

    I don’t like peppers but I think I’ll try the cheese mixture in zucchini boats with caramelized sweet onions. Now that sounds yummy to me!
    Have a terrific day!

    You have more fun at that farmer’s market than a kid in a candy shop! I would totally loose my brains there, it sounds wonderful. My farmer’s market is clear across town, so sad! Your appetizer is quite yummy sounding!

    Dang girl! You did well at the farmer’s market and TJs. And you found my weak spot – jalapeno peppers. I am skeptical that the fat free cream cheese is just as good. but am Totally willing to give it a try! 😉 Hope you are having a great weekend.

      Hi Christine, In some recipes, I find that fat free cream cheese works great! In this recipe, I used full fat pepper jack cheese, and the fat free cream cheese made it creamy, I was looking more for texture. You really don’t taste the cream cheese so much in this recipe. You really taste the chicken and the jack cheese, plus the jalapeno of course. If I were making something like a bagel where I would be tasting the cream cheese, I’d probably go for reduced fat. My Husband who likes fatty foods, didn’t notice the difference using fat free cream cheese. The star of this recipe is really the jalapeno!

I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room.

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.

The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.
🌸
Do you have any summer vacation scheduled this year?

Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll be counting down to my next vacation, which will be the week of the 4th of July. I will tell you, it felt so nice not having any plans and doing work in the garden.
🌻
This weekend I finally made it to the Farmers Market and I picked up these amazing sunflowers. They are such a happy flower. 
🌻
When I got them, I couldn’t resist doing a flowers in the sink photo. I haven’t done one of these since Fall. Now I may have to go back to the Farmers Market next weekend because they had so many flowers and most were only $4.00 a bundle.

Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I pretty much spent the whole week working in my garden, so I apologize for all the flower photos. 
🌸
This is a view of my fenced in garden. The flowers on the left are zinnias, and next to them is beardtongue and in the background, butterfly bush.  In about a month or so, this background will pop with lots of orange from my Mexican sunflower and yellow from the black eyed susan. I just hope my black eyed susan’s make it. They are struggling. 
🌸
I have to say I have been enjoying working in the garden. It’s therapy to me. It just makes me feel good to sit back and see all your hard work start to bloom. I can’t wait to see what the garden looks like a month.
🌸
What do you like to do that you consider your therapy?
