Jalapeno peppers are a favorite of mine. They’re spicy, sweet, and have tons of flavor. I love growing them in my garden, but they’re not always easy to grow. They need a long growing season, lots of water, and sunlight. If you’re looking for an easy plant to grow, this isn’t the one.

How to use jalapenos for eating
Jalapeno peppers are a favorite of mine. They’re spicy, sweet, and have tons of flavor. I love growing them in my garden, but they’re not always easy to grow. I use my jalapeno plants for both eating and cooking. I roast them, peel them, puree them, and add them to dishes. For example, I use jalapenos in this recipe for roasted potatoes. You’ll need:
Six medium potatoes
One jalapeno pepper
Two cloves garlic
Olive oil
Salt
Pepper
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Pierce each potato several times with a fork. Bake for 45 minutes or until tender. While the potatoes are baking, prepare the Jalapeno. Remove the stem and seeds from the Jalapeno. Put the Jalapeno in a food processor, along with the garlic and olive oil. Blend until smooth—season with salt and pepper to taste. When the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and cut them into quarters. Top with the jalapeno sauce.

Where Can I Find Jalapeno Peppers?
Jalapeno peppers are a favorite of mine. They’re spicy, sweet, and have tons of flavor. I love growing them in my garden, but they’re not always easy to grow. They need a lot of space to grow, so they don’t like being planted. They like being in pots, and they need many suns to grow. When I moved into my new house, I didn’t have a good spot for a garden. I didn’t have any land to work with, and I had to be careful where I planted them. I planted my peppers in the back corner of my front yard, near my patio and the neighbor’s fence. The peppers grew well, but I wanted to try to grow them in a bigger pot. I decided to go with a 10-inch pot. My pepper seeds were planted, and they grew well. But I wasn’t sure how long it would be until I got my first harvest.
