Peppers are delicious, common ingredients in tons of recipes here on CDK. The sweet peppers go with meats or other vegetables, whereas hot peppers like jalapenos, habaneros, or chiltepin make mouths burn, eyes water, and skin perspire. But people love 'em! That's why this is National Pepper Month.

A Tex-Mex classic since the 1940s, nachos are delicious as a snack or hors d'oeuvre at informal parties. The primary dish of tortilla chips, spicy ground beef or chicken, and cheese can be dressed up considerably with other tasty ingredients.
