Peppers are yet another thing that is easy to grow in the deep south...good thing because those sweet red peppers are so expensive from the grocery! I have the bell peppers that start out green and when ripe turn red...delicious!
Some things I find are better to grow from seeds and others best to buy the transplants. I got these transplants, tomatoes, and my eggplants from Charvet's. They have a great selection and great prices. For a 3 or 4 pack it usually runs about $1.50. I usually grow lettuce, beans, herbs, and melons from seeds.
You might be thinking....what can you do with all of those jalepeno peppers?! Here's a great recipe (thanks to my wonderful neighbors!) that is not too spicy.
Stuffed Jalepeno:
dozen jalepenos (cored-remove all of the seeds-the seeds are what makes them spicy)
insert small cubes of cheese - either pepper jack or cheddar - to fill the jalepenos
take a strip of bacon and lay it over the top (opening) of the jalepeno (if you want a healthier option we've tried thin slices of smoked salmon instead of bacon and loved it!!)
insert a toothpick to help it stay
put the jalepenos in a jalepeno stand, place on a grill over medium heat, and cover
cook until the jalepenos are crisp tender and bacon is cooked
