    JalapenosBy Matt Goulet

    When Corso and Co. start spouting their predictions from the steps of Michigan State's Beaumont Tower this Saturday, surrounding them will be hundreds of tailgate setups around the East Lansing campus, with grills ablaze in advance of the No. 20-ranked Spartans hosting No. 14 Ohio State. While most of us will be in the comfort of our own homes, that doesn't mean we can't participate in some good ol' tailgate-style grilling. Make some space between the requisite steaks, burgers, and brats for an easy batch of grilled jalapeño poppers as a starter.

    Grilled Jalapeno Poppers

    Serves nine.

    18 jalapenos
    1 8oz brick of cream cheese at room temperature
    1/2 cup white onion (or scallions), diced
    1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

I wasn't fussy about crusts. I just loved the sticky pairing of creamy peanut butter with syrupy golden sweetness drizzled from a honey bear in diagonals across the soft white bread. Nothing else--save for maybe apples and peanut butter in a pinch--could have made for as sweet an
