      I have tried a lot of stuffed jalapeno recipes and loved most all of them. This one is a good one with a pretty authentic Mexican flavor. I noticed that one reviewer was not happy with the "spiciness" of the jalapenos. I can immediately think of two reasons that could happen. First it is the chilies themselves, jalapenos used to have a reputation for heat but now most of them seem to be too mild to be of much use. I believe this is because so many of them are now force fed with fertilizers and water to make them grow faster and thus generate more profits. It is a known fact that jalapenos grown under stress from a lack of water and a lot of hot sun will be hot. In the store you can identify the hottest ones by the "stretch marks" running vertically in the skin. The second possible reason for the result not being spicy or hot is the failure to use the Rotel brand of tomatoes used by Paula. These tomatoes are canned with hot jalapenos included in the mix. Regular canned tomatoes will be tame by comparison.

      These were very tasty. Next time I plan to use a little less cumin. It's surprising that they are not hot. Nice appetizer that is quick, easy to prepare and looks great. Thanks Mary for posting.

      Nice twist for serving jalapenos! These were flavorful and delicious. My jalapenos were spicy, so this packed plenty of punch for us. Thanks for sharing! Party '11

      Had these when I did the low crab. Added a tad of some hot sauce to it. Not too much. Really yummy and spicy.

      These were good, but they weren't spicy at all... which is why I like jalapenos. They were tasty- but when it comes to stuffed jalapenos, there are others I like better.

      These get rave reviews every time I serve them. I put just a little more cheese on mine and only use sharp cheddar. I also save time and use the Tyson frozen fajita chicken strips.

      These were great! I really enjoyed them. I think I'll make the filling and just use as a sandwich spread...kinda like a spicy chicken salad. The filling was great. Another reviewer said these weren't hot -- my husband and I are "hot heads" but both agreed they had some heat. Thanks for posting! Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders tag.

      Oh these are good! I used turkey in place of chicken as I had lots stored in my freezer, I also added in a teaspoon of fresh garlic and reduced the cinnamon to 1/4 cup, since my family loves extreme heat I left in some of the seeds, Rotel is not sold in Canada so I use a ripe red tomato finely chopped and also used seasoned salt, thanks for sharing Mary!
