This is a super juicy and moist ceviche! It is so good! Serve with tortilla chips.
Spicy Appetizers
Lil Sis’ Jalapeno Dip
Quick and easy dip, good for just about any occasion. Serve with tortilla chips or Fritos® Scoops®. It gets better as it sits in the fridge.
Spicy Beef Nacho Bake
Browned ground beef and diced jalapeno peppers combined with chunky salsa is topped with chips and cheese, and baked until cheese is melted for this quick, spicy dish.
Jalapeno Scorpion Pigs
If you like bacon, shrimp, and like things spicy (in this case fresh jalapenos), this is for you. It’s great as an appetizer or a heavy hors d’oeuvre. Can also be made on the grill!
Apricot Salsa
This recipe was part of a recipe challenge that worked out quite well. Nice heat from the habanero and lovely sweetness from the apricots and pineapples.
Green Chile Cheese Dip
This is my version of chile con queso. It is easy and delicious. Cream of mushroom soup balances the spicy flavor of green chiles. Serve with tortilla chips.
Clart’s Cheesy Straws
Lovely cheesy pastry straws with a little spice and Dijon mustard. Ideal as an appetizer or snack, and great with soup.
Zucchini, Pork, and Peppers
This has been in our family for years. It’s great for get togethers — just to put out in an electric frying pan and let everyone enjoy. Serve on fresh Italian bread.
Marinated Chicken
We use this rich, sweet marinade for chicken — breasts, thighs and/or wings. We like wings the best. Garlic powder or ground red pepper may be included in the marinade. The amount of chicken used and the cooking method may be altered as necessary. Try cooking on the barbeque!
Fabulous Fish
This is a delicious and spicy appetizer to serve at cocktail parties! Smoked herring and anchovies are blended into a flavorful spread that’s great on buttery, round crackers.
Stuffed Jalapenos I
A spicy appetizer of jalapeno peppers stuffed with beans, chicken and cheese. Topped with sour cream, this appetizer is unbelievably good!
Chinese Firecrackers
These appetizers are an explosion of flavor with turkey, crisp veggies, and the zing of chili paste.
Hot and Spicy Stuffed Mushrooms
Cheese, bacon, and peppers! I usually throw an habanero in when we are making it just for us. These are also great with a salad for dinner. This filling is also a good stuffing for jalapenos.
Bekki’s Mexican Egg Rolls
This amazingly tasty recipe was given to me by my aunt about 10 years ago. My family has continued to make it often, and it always is a smashing success! It’s adaptable for both for meat-eaters and vegetarians, and is great out of the oven and reheats well. It’s a terrific dish for football parties and whenever you’re attacked by the munchies. A vegetarian version of ground beef can also be used for the filling.
Raspberry Inferno Sauce
A fiery, fruity sauce of hot peppers and raspberry preserves. Perfect for dipping chicken wings!
Sweet and Spicy Pecans
These pecans have graced our family’s Christmas sweet gift platters. I’ve also sprinkled them over my gourmet salads. They add so much in either case. I can’t get enough of them! Lining the pans with parchment paper makes for easier removal of the pecans and easier cleanup!
