Happy New Year & Good Saturday everyone! Hope you are enjoying these last days of the holidays. My break off school has been lots of fun and I am not ready for it to start on Monday. Yesterday, my Mom took my brothers and I snowboarding. We haven't gone snowboarding for a month due to road conditions and weather, so we were itching really bad to get out. It was a perfect and sunny day and we all had a blast! *Pictures below*
Onto some food. These peppers at #3 are so delicious you can't only eat one. The sausage mixture inside the peppers gives it an amazing flavor. We have these every New Years Eve and they have become a family favorite here. They get spicy but most of us love spicy here. Another recipe with a kick!



Sausage-Stuffed Jalapenos
Ingredients:
1 pound bulk pork sausage
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Parmesan cheese
22 large jalapeno pepper, halved lengthwise and seeded
Ranch salad dressing, optional
1 pound bulk pork sausage
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Parmesan cheese
22 large jalapeno pepper, halved lengthwise and seeded
Ranch salad dressing, optional
DIRECTIONS:
In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. In a small mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and Parmesan cheese; fold in sausage. Spoon about 1 tablespoonful into each jalapeno half. Place in two ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dishes. Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 15-20 minutes or until filling is lightly browned and bubbly. Serve with ranch dressing if desired. Yield: 44 appetizers.

Steven and Joe. They are better at the whole jumping thing. They don't have a fear of braking something or getting humiliated.




After snowboarding the next best thing is sleeping...hands down.
Have a great weekend and I'll see you with #2 next!
