Best Ever Jalapeño Poppers
This homemade jalapeño poppers recipe was made by taking the best features of three or four other popper recipes and combining them to make something that tastes wonderful. A frequent request at my house, and at others. I usually make 100 and put them in the fridge. They don't last long so increase the recipe as necessary. Adjust the amount of bacon bits and type of shredded cheese to taste. Lots of tests will help you figure out the best way you like your jalapeño poppers.

Almond-Oatmeal Cookies with Black Raspberries
These chewy oatmeal cookies deviate from the norm thanks to the addition of almond butter, sliced almonds, and black raspberries. If frozen black raspberries are difficult to find where you live, you can replace them with either frozen red raspberries or frozen blackberries–just make sure to give them a rough chop before adding to the batter, since they're often bigger than black raspberries.
