Peppadew Peppers


These have been around for a few years now, but you still don't hear much about them. I don't know why they are so awesome. My first experience with these little gems is when a sales rep had sent me a few samples and I have been in love with them since.
Words can't describe them they must be experienced.These sweat peppers are great on sandwiches or straight out of the jar.

Try this recipe for Grilled Peppadew Quesadilla

You will need:
10 - 6 inch Flour Tortilla's
1 Cup Shredded Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese
1 Cup Shredded Monterrey Jack Cheese
1 Cup Diced Grilled Chicken Marinated in D.L. Jardines Fajita Marinade.
1/2 cup Chopped Peppadew Peppers (hot or mild)Olive Oil
Salsa and Sour Cream for dipping
Heat up your grill to medium hot. Blend the two cheeses together. Using a pastry brush, brush olive oil on one side of the tortilla and place on grill. Put a layer of the cheese down on the tortilla and sprinkle some chicken and Peppadew Peppers on top of the cheese. Brush oil on another tortilla and place that tortilla (oil side up). Grill for about three minutes or until golden brown then flip grill until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is golden brown. Slice into quarters and serve hot off the grill.
