I think it would make 25 to 30. (plus it was kinda hard to stuff them, I tried to roll up like you said but felt it was all over me, so I switch to the baller thing to scoop in and mush down into the the pepper.) used the very small end of my grandmothers antique melon baller...also, I really like the thyme,, its so much better than the dried. I used at least 6 good sprigs.SusieQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14475207866482942858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5092643544352465048.post-25507727590061830442012-01-22T16:36:13.372-08:002012-01-22T16:36:13.372-08:00One question Susie...How many pickled peppers do y...One question Susie...How many pickled peppers do you think the pimento cheese recipe would make?The Chubby Vegetarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04959030083261100332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5092643544352465048.post-83345756875932980152012-01-22T16:25:20.777-08:002012-01-22T16:25:20.777-08:00WOW!

Also a little on the tops made it easier to stuff them. <br />I decided to make a Grilled Pimento Cheese sandwich. It was yummy. The cheese melted perfectly. The bread I used was some made at the grocery bakery, with a small crust. I think next time I would use a more substantial bread with a heavier crust because the pimento cheese is heavier than a slice of cheese and would hold up much better.<br />Now for the taste. I think if I was to make again, I'd add a little more shallot, but thats just me I love onion flavor. I had no idea what Goat cheese to buy as I have not had before.. so I followed the lady at Whole foods suggestion and used the type they used to use when they made pimento cheese. All in all, it was Very Good. The melding of flavor from the sweet and slightly spicy peppers against the velvety tangy of the cheese was perfect! Great little appetizer.<br />Chubby- I have some pic's I uploaded to my FB page cuz I was so proud.. I couldn't figure out how to tag your page so come over and look at them... Thanks so much I enjoyed this adventure.SusieQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14475207866482942858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5092643544352465048.post-73395445874529802982012-01-22T12:25:36.353-08:002012-01-22T12:25:36.353-08:00ok understand I'm just starting to try to prep...ok understand I'm just starting to try to prepare healthy foods and don't know a lot especially when it comes to fresh ingredients ...<br />note 1- didn't know it was easier to pull the fresh thyme against the stalk the opposite way its grows naturally. Figured that out.<br />note 2- the lemon zest came off in strands that were difficult to chop, I think because the lemon had been refrigerated, maybe one that was room temperature would grate right?<br />note 3- is a bunch of baby dill one sprig or a bunch of sprigs? Lol no seriously I luv doing this for you. I'll google it, ok got from www.apinchof.com. <br />note 4- I would also be sure to distinguish that the dill is for garnishment as I almost added in the bowl.<br />note 5-I used the small end of a melon baller to pick up enough and stuff in the peppers<br />and it is easier to handle if the cheese mixture is chilled first.<br />my son came in from church and tested one,so down to 23...he said it was Good! <br />will be writing about the sandwich next.SusieQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14475207866482942858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5092643544352465048.post-61627332395773632522012-01-21T14:50:40.465-08:002012-01-21T14:50:40.465-08:00CD, go for it if you want to try this one out, too...CD, go for it if you want to try this one out, too!<br /><br />TCVThe Chubby Vegetarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04959030083261100332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5092643544352465048.post-24712966764312538552012-01-21T14:22:40.944-08:002012-01-21T14:22:40.944-08:00It is fresh and it come out to about a cup (added ...It is fresh and it come out to about a cup (added this to the recipe. This is so helpful, seriously!) I've used roasted and for some reason they seem to turn a little bitter in the mix. I like the crunch of the fresh. I usually peel the pepper as well using my serrated peeler, but that seems too picky for most.
