*Ehem*... Hello, my name is Jessica... (Hi, Jess-ca...) And I am a carb-aholic.
No really, I'm pretty sure carbs keep me in my super happy mood. Those days when I'm all moody and angry? Probably days that I didn't let myself have carbs. I've tried to cut carbs completely many times, but my soul needs carbs to deal with all the ya-hoo's out there. My usual go-to cravings are carbs. Baked potatoes, french fries, rolls, pizza, pasta and, you guessed it, MAC & CHEESE.
When I saw that my dear friend Karen Mangham (just so you know, Karen, I typed your maiden name here first before correcting myself... LOL) had posted an AWESOME looking version of my staple craving, I was all over that. I actually saw it a few weeks ago when she pinned it, but you guys are giving me such a hard time choosing which one to make that I have a pretty long list of what to make! So thank you to Karen, for pinning this nom-worthy recipe to try!
My husband loves Jalapeno Poppers. When we were planning our wedding reception, I asked him what he wanted to eat at the reception. He IMMEDIATELY said "Jalapeno Poppers". This didn't really work with our decision to have "desserts only", and he was a little bummed out by this. Little did he know I had made arrangements for him to have his own personal plate of Jalapeno Poppers after our first dance! You should have seen his face when I walked him to the stage and there sat a plate of poppers that my maid-of-honor (Thanks, Allie!) had secretly made him during our dance! So when I showed him this recipe from Budget Gourmet Mom, he was more than happy to be a taste-tester.
