From the Test Kitchen
- Tip *Hot chile peppers, such as jalapenos, contain oils that can burn skin and eyes. Avoid direct contact as much as possible. Wear plastic gloves. If using bare hands, wash hands well with soap and water.

7/12/2011 12:52:05 PM Report AbuseFantastic and easy recipe. Recently made this for our annual vacation's bonfire on the beach. Everyone loved it and asked for the recipe. Will definitely keep this one as one our our family's favorite summertime recipes.
7/9/2011 09:48:26 AM Report AbuseThis was very fresh and fantastic! I didn't make any changes to the original recipe. Oh wait, I omitted the jalapeno (kiddos). I thought maybe, it would be too oily but it wasn't. It made a lot and I will definitely make this again.
7/4/2011 09:32:16 PM Report AbuseWe made it without the green pepper and jalapeno. In stead I added some Hot pepper sauce and it was great!
