The Heart of Dixie


By day I am a lowly telecom rep, workin' for the weekend along with the rest of the underprivileged world. But after work I am Dixie Kicks, a proud member of the Wicked Pissahs and the Boston Massacre roller derby teams. When I am not wearing skates, you can find me cooking up a vegan storm in the kitchen, daydreaming of North Carolina (my home, sweet home), petting my cats, planning my next adventure, looking for great vintage finds at thrift stores, spending lots of time with my boyfriend, and planning craft projects that will never be started and/or completed.

Ask me anything

yummyvegan: Party Jalapeno Poppersvegan, makes 10 poppers 5 large jalapeno peppers, de-seeded and halved cheese mixture: 1/4 cup vegan cream cheese 1/4 cup vegan cheddar cheese shreds Flour Mixture: 2 Tbsp whole wheat flour 1 Tbsp Yeast Dash of chipotle powder Pinch of salt and pepper Panko Bread Crumbs Small flat bowl of soy milk (about 1/4 cup) 1+ cups grape seed oil (you can also use olive oil) Directions: 1. Prep your jalapenos by halving them and carefully removing the seeds. Set aside. 2. Get your “breading” station set up. You will have a bowl for each of these: cheese mixture (fold the shreds into the cream cheese), flour mixture, panko crumbs, soy milk. 3. Start prepping your jalapenos. Here is the method: stuff with cheese, roll in milk, roll in flour, back in milk, roll in panko crumbs, set aside. Pressing the panko crumbs into the wet cheese layer really helps. Continue this process until all the jalapenos are stuffed and breaded. 4. Pour your oil into a large pot over med-high heat. Test the oil for heat-readiness by dropping one panko crumb into the oil – if it sizzles, the oil is hot enough. If you can get by with cooking all your poppers with 1 cup of oil, great. But if you want a more saturated “fry” you may need to add more. 5. Pan-fry eat jalapeno popper for about 90 seconds on each side. Flip with care. 6. Transfer poppers to a paper towels to cool for a few minutes before serving. (Photo via hardcoreherbivore) Yum!! Probably not the best thing in the world for me to eat, but I sure would eat the hell outta those!
