I took a Jalapeno Poppers recipe from AllRecipes.com and made it low fat/low cal by exchanging the full fat ingredients with light or fat free ingredients. I call it Skinny Poppers.
Ingredients
- 1 (8 oz.) package light or fat free cream cheese, softened
- 1 (8 oz.) package 2% milk shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup fat free mayonnaise
- 15 fresh jalapeno peppers, halved lengthwise and seeded
- 4 egg whites, beaten
- 1/2 Tbsp. reduced fat milk
- 1 1/2 cups crushed corn flake cereal
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking sheet with cooking spray. In a medium bowl, mix together cream cheese, Cheddar cheese and mayo. Stuff jalapeno halves with the mixture. Whisk together egg whites and milk in a small bowl. Place crushed corn flake cereal in a separate small bowl. Dip each stuffed jalapeno half into the egg white and milk mixture, then roll in corn flake cereal to coat. Arrange in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven 30 minutes, or until filling is bubbly and lightly browned
