I'm Ready To Go...

Thanksgiving morning Dan and I were getting ready to head to Nanny's house...then Taggie decided he wanted to go too. He bolted past us and made a mad dash to the garage. When I got down the stairs this is what I found...A Taggie waiting for someone to open the car door so he can jump in and come with us. (He stayed there long enough for me to go upstairs, get the camera and then come back down.) He was very sad when we told him he had to stay at the house. We finally got him back upstairs and we headed to Nanny's. We had a wonderful thanksgiving and it was great to see all the family!

Recipe: So, I made some yummy jalapeno poppers and took them to Nanny's house. I wasn't sure if anyone would like them but they turned out to be a big hit. Here is the recipe if you are interested:

Jalapeno Poppers
1 lb sausage
8 oz cream cheese
1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
22 jalapenos, halved and gutted (if you use big jalapenos, you will probably need less)
ranch dressing for dipping

Heat oven to 425 degrees. Cook sausage in skillet and drain grease. Mix cream cheese and parmesan cheese in bowl. Once mixed, add sausage to cheese mixture. Stuff jalapenos with meat/cheese mixture and lay jalapenos side by side in a cooking dish. (They tend to fall over while cooking if not side by side). Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until brown on top. Serve with ranch dressing for dipping. Enjoy!
