Ingredients

    Filling
    Breakstone's 2%, low sodium cottage cheese, 0.5 cup
    Parmesan Cheese, grated, 1 tbsp
    Scallions, raw, 1 tbsp chopped
    Garlic, 1 clove
    Salt, pepper and other spices to taste

    Breading
    1 egg yolk
    .25 cup Bread crumbs

    Jalapeno Peppers, 6 peppers

Tips

Use this same stuffing to make stuffed mushrooms, spread on a whole grain bagel or as a spread on sandwiches!


Directions

Measure the cottage and Parmesan cheese, press the garlic (or mince), chop the scallions finely and mix it all together in a bowl.

Cut the peppers in half lengthwise and get rid of all the seeds and white areas (that's where most of the hotness is - leave some seeds if you want them to burn your face off)

Stuff the peppers with the mixture.

Coat the stuffed peppers in egg yolk then dip them in the bread crumbs. Place breaded peppers on a foil lined cookie sheet and bake at 350 for about 25 mins or until the peppers are soft and the breading is crispy.

Serving Size: makes six 1 pepper servings (but at 43 cal/serving... have a few!)

Number of Servings: 6

    Incredible!
    This is such a FUN treat. I also made these using Corn flakes for breading and got some good feedback on this flavoring also. - 7/8/13

    Good
    I leave the seeds in. But then, we like our poppers hot. - 1/30/13
