This is absolutely fantastic!! I made for a football snack yesterday. My husband & middle son were hooked immediately! I will make this again!
Makes an excellent non-spicy dip by substituting 1/4 bell peppers for the jalapenos if you have people who can't eat spicy food at all like my Mum! ;p - 1/19/09
