Jalopeno Poppers Recipes

Just like at the Fair!

Lower fat version of popper appetizer

great for low carbing

One way to add flavoring to bland air-popped popcorn.

The way I see it is this: Why eat fake food, when you can portion-control the real deal? It's not an every day food, but it will SATISFY, and doesn't taste like styrofoam! ;-)

Break out the movies! 2 cups of herby, cheesy popcorn for 133 calories, 5.4 grams of MUFAs (the cholesterol fighter), and NO BAD CHOLESTEROL!!! You just try to get that from two cups of chips!

These are a great appetizer, snack or even a side dish to go with supper! If you are a lover of zucchini you will find this recipe very satisfying without breaking the calorie counter!

I love salsa but it seems all the store bought ones are so high in sodium that I wasn't able to enjoy much of them. I came up with this recipe that has all the flavor and ingredients that I love and is so low in sodium that I can have as much as I want. Delicious! This is a hot version. If you prefer a mild salsa, leave out the jalopeno pepper.

A tasty variation on the traditional popper. My hubby likes these for superbowl sunday. You can also vary the recipe by adding 2 -4 T fat free sharp cheddar shreds to the cream cheese mixture. Also you can use panko crumbs for a crispier coating. Make these at least once before serving to company, as it takes a knack to get them to come out nice looking.

I make a variation of this each time, but this is my favorite combo so far. I have also tried filling with rice, chicken, zucchini... whatever i happen to have. Filling without the shrimp and vegetables is just a basic jalapeno popper without breading. I have experimented with breading too, but it looks messier, takes longer, and is less healthy. (I almost never follow a recipe and do it differently each time, so take my measurements "with a grain of salt.")

If you like jalapeno poppers, you'll love this recipe! The spicy pepper mellows out a bit as it cooks.

Crispy Chickpeas perfect for snacking!

Fantastic Low Carb Treat - Dip in low carb ranch or blue cheese dressing. Super Bowl Party favorite !

Fat free cream cheese and mayo make this dip light on calories and fat, but tastes like it's the real thing.
