Looking for an appetizer that’s a little different? Try these little bites of spicy jalapeno peppers. I have a bunch on my bush and didn’t know what to do with them all, so I experimented and this is what I came up with!
[1]
What you need:
- 8 really big jalapeno
- 1 cup whole tortilla chips (the strips kind, not the Doritos kind)
[2] - 1 cup multigrain chips
- 1 cup crunchy Cheetos
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 egg
- ¼ cup water
- oil to fry them in
- Lime Wedges
How to Do it:
First, cut the peppers into disk-shaped slices. I left the seeds, but you can remove them if you want a milder snack.

Put all the remaining ingredients, except the egg and water, into a food processor. Process until it is a finely ground meal.
[4]
Beat the egg and water together. Add about 1/8 of a cup of the cracker meal and mix well. Put the jalapeno into the egg mixture and let set for a few minutes.
[5]
Carefully remove the disks and cover well with the dry meal.
[6]
Fry in hot oil until the outside is crispy and light brown.
[7]
Serve with lime wedges and ranch or blue cheese on the side.

Makes enough appetizers for about 4-6 people.
