Raspberry jam as a Salmon glaze, Mango jam

Jalapeno Jellies are great:
Mix with cream cheese, serve as an appetizer, or pour over brie.
Mix
medium jalapeno and cream cheese with your scrambled eggs.

drain
and stir in a tablespoon of your favorite jalapeño jelly,
Raspberry Jalapeno is the one I use!
