Jalapeno Cheese Pie 2

This recipe came from Southern Living. It is adapted from the cookbook, Cooking Texas Style: Tenth Anniversary Edition by Candy Wagner and Sandra Marquez. The heat of the peppers is soothingly coated with lots of cheese, so don't be afraid of the jalapenos! If you want a milder taste, just do half a jar of peppers--which would be about 4 of them. Stir in some leftover chicken or sausage for an easy brunch dish. With only 3 ingredients, what an easy dish to prepare! It's really delicious too!
