I'm from Southern California. You can not find a restaurant that does not have these hot Mexican carrots. Being on the East Coast now, I have had to come up with my own version to duplicate the hot carrots of home.
Ingredients
- 6 carrots , peeled and sliced
- 1 jar sliced jalapeno peppers , 16 ounce
- 2 onions , thinly sliced
- 1 cup vinegar
Instructions
-
1
Place carrots in a saucepan with enough water to cover and cook over medium heat until nearly boiling, 7 to 10 minutes. Immediately drain carrots and set aside to cool.
-
2
Divide cooled carrots into two 1-quart glass jars. Alternate layers of onion and jalapeño peppers atop carrots until the jars are full.
-
3
Mix the liquid from jalapeño peppers and vinegar in a saucepan; bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Remove from heat and pour the liquid into the jars until full. Seal the jars with lids. Place the jars in the refrigerator until cold, at least 8 hours.

Brandy Pecan Pie
This is the one pie that I always required my mom to make for the holidays. I would always want to cut into it right when it came out of the oven, but I would have to wait until after dinner! It is worth the wait!

Touchdown Pizza
My favorite sports pub serves this, and I've come up with a simple and delicious home version. Many local restaurants sell wing sauce, and most grocery stores carry it near the steak and BBQ sauces. It's rich, so serve in squares as an appetizer. Serve ranch dressing, celery, and carrot sticks on the side. Enjoy!
