I think I went too heavy on the jalepenos b/c they were really spicy but really good!

It is a great start. Everyone loved them even my picky grandson. Didn't know he was eating green pepper thought it was jalapeno. I will play around with the seasonings...maybe add a little cumin. Turkey is a sponge so anything will add flavor to it. Evryone liked the sauce but I can't make it to often because ranch dressing has MSG in it and is not good for my husband who can't have it. Will try the recipe from Country Woman for homemade ranch. Thanks for a great start. Nancy
