Kim's lowfat jalapeno poppers

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.Submitted by: KEEYAHWE

This was yummy - I used ground turkey instead of beef and added a diced jalapeno, cumin, and cayenne pepper and served with tortillas (not rice). I made a half batch by using 1/2 pound turkey and 1 can of tomatoes, but leaving all the other amounts the same. I'd make this again! - 9/7/08
