I used the recipe for Monterey Jack from 200 Easy Cheeses. I chopped up some slightly dehydrated roasted Poblano peppers and a crushed dried Paprika pepper, and mixed those with the curds at the point when they were draining in the colander. I had read on this forum not to use fresh peppers as that would add moisture and, possibly, mold to the cheese. My cheese came out fine.
