- Jalapeno Peppers -

(Pepper - Jalapeno) The jalapeno pepper is probably the best known of the chili peppers. On the "heat index" of hot peppers, the jalapeno is relatively "mild". Jalapeno peppers are about two to three inches in length and are mostly green or with a red blush. Select jalapeno peppers that are firm and free of bruises, blemishes, and wrinkles. They will store in the refrigerator for about a week. However, it is best to use them as soon as possible or process them into Pickled Jalapeno Pepper Slices for future use on sandwiches and pizzas. See the nutritional chart below.

The above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live! (d-14)
