It's not hot, Jalapeno Pepper Mac & Cheese
Are you in need of a good, easy, delicious recipe for the 4th of July. You can't beat this macaroni and cheese dish. Using jalapenos does not make it hot if you remove the ribs and seeds, but if you want the heat, leave the seeds in. It'll be delicious either way. Let me know what you think. Recipe below.
Enjoy!

    This sounds really great! I'm growing jalapeños this year, so it is on the list for later this summer. My mother always used crushed saltines for topping--that was back in the 1960s. And the Velveta and cheddar mix. Great memory!

    You are right about the jalapeños. My goodness. They burn me up. I found out the hard way and my hands burned for about 5-6 hours after handling them. I washed my hands in every thing, rubbed olive oil on them them soaked them in milk, made up a sugar paste & nothing helped. I always use gloves now. This is going to be delicious Karen. The elbow macaroni is all I’d use for my mac and cheese. Love you sweet friend. ❤
