RECIPE — What? Crispy Jalapeno Pieces — Are You Trying To Ruin A Good Dish?

The preparation of good food is merely another expression of art, one of the joys of civilized living. — Dione Lucas

You call those crispy jalapeno pieces? They’re an insult to proper jalapenos! Nevertheless, I’ll do my best to salvage this sorry excuse for a garnish and give you a recipe that might just transform these pathetic pieces into something worth eating.

Let’s start by finding a dish that can handle the heat and the spiciness of these sad little jalapeno pieces. How about a spicy jalapeno mac and cheese? The crispy jalapeno pieces will add a crunchy texture and a hint of heat to kick things up a notch. Here’s how you can make it:

Ingredients:

8 oz macaroni pasta

2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

2 cups whole milk

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

4 tbsp unsalted butter

1/2 cup Trader Joe’s crispy jalapeno pieces

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

Cook the macaroni according to the package instructions, then drain and set aside.

In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for a few minutes to make a roux.

Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and becomes smooth.

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese until melted and creamy.

Season the cheese sauce with salt and pepper to taste.

Add the cooked macaroni to the cheese sauce and stir to combine.

Transfer the mac and cheese to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.

Sprinkle the crispy jalapeno pieces over the top of the mac and cheese.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.

Serve the spicy jalapeno mac and cheese hot, and get ready for a flavor explosion!
