Oh my, what can I say about something so easy, but so inviting in it's presentation, and so sinfully delicious to devour. All three of my favorite foods! This was lightening fast to prepare, and I cut them into bite sized pieces for an appetizer before dinner. The only change was I added fresh jalapenos instead of jarred, and shredded jalapeno jack cheese too. Thanks so much, Juenessa,we will be making this often!

I've been eating jalapeno pie since before I could walk! I love it. My grandmother made it once a month for years and years but as we all got older and she began to lose her memory, her recipe was lost. Long forgotten, along with all of her other recipes. Of course I attempted to recreate her famous jalapeno pie but all I knew was what I'd seen her do as a child. Lay jalapenos (nacho slices) in the bottom of a pyrex dish, add shredded cheese, beat a few eggs and add some of the juice (brine) from the peppers to the eggs, pour egg mixture over the cheese, then bake. My recreation fell short every time because I only ever added one or two eggs and never could get the temp or cook time right... UNTIL I FOUND THIS RECIPE. So, THANK YOU!!! I'll still lay my peppers down like she did and add a little "juice" and I'll always cut it in squares and put them on tortilla chips but I wouldn't have been able to enjoy her jalapeno pie without you. Thanks again, from the whole family.
