FETA STUFFED JALAPENOS
I saw these beautiful red Jalapenos and couldn't resist them but not sure what to do with them - I found a recipe on the internet by "Claire". Tweaked it a bit. Depending on the size of your peppers you may need a bit more oil & vinegar (keep it in proportion)they must be covered with the oil/vingar while marinating. Simple and Oh so tasty Prep time does not inclued the minimum 4 hours marinating

Tips:
- Choose the right peppers: Use medium-sized jalapeños that are firm and have smooth skin. Avoid any peppers that are bruised or have blemishes.
- Wear gloves when handling peppers: The capsaicin in jalapeños can irritate your skin, so it's important to wear gloves when you're cutting or seeding them.
- Remove the seeds and ribs from the peppers: This will help to reduce the heat of the peppers. You can use a spoon or a knife to remove the seeds and ribs.
- Stuff the peppers with your favorite fillings: You can use a variety of fillings for your stuffed jalapeños, such as cheese, meat, seafood, or vegetables. Be creative and experiment with different flavors.
- Bake or fry the peppers: You can bake or fry your stuffed jalapeños. If you're baking them, preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the peppers are tender. If you're frying them, heat a large skillet over medium heat and fry the peppers for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown.
