Oh my goodness are these delicious! What a great idea. I used a cheddar and monterey jack soy cheese blend and bell pepper instead of jalapeño (personal preference). The onions and peppers smelled so yummy cooking, and the flavors all melded together so well in the finished product. My only problem was that the temperature seemed to have been way too hot for my grill, since the outside got pretty charred and crispy. I've had other similar issues, though, so I don't blame it on this recipe... but I will try it on med or med-low next time instead. There will definitely be a next time. Thanks for a real keeper, mariposa!
