1 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
¼ pounds Margerine
1 cup Chopped onion
½ cup Chopped celery
3 Loaves jalapeño bread; sliced, (either commercial or home-made-- note: Glen Hosey makes a great one!)
2 cups Warm water
½ pounds Crumbled tomato and basil feta cheese

Directions

A side to go with that jalapeño turkey that was being discussed: In large skillet, melt margarine, saute' onion and celery, stirring often.

Meanwhile, lightly toast slices of Jalapeño bread on cookie sheet in oven.

Cut into cubes. Combine cubed jalapeño bread and water in large bowl. Fold in crumbled feta cheese. Slowly add moistned bread to celery and onion mixture in skillet, stirring constantly over low heat for about 5 minutes to blend flavors. Turn into a greased casserole dish and garnish the top with roasted red peppers and jalapeño slices, if desired. Bake at 325, covered for about 20 minutes. Then uncover and bake until browned, 15-20 minutes. For a zesty variation, add 1½ cups cooked, crumbled chorizo before baking.

For a truly southwestern Thanskgiving, serve with picadillo, pumpkin tamales, squash w/ cheese, string beans w/ almonds and cream, variety of salsas. Enjoy!
