comfort food at its healthiest - i think














i admit it.  i really like jalapeno poppers... hate the name, hate saying "poppers."  but, i really like the hot jalapeno with the gooey cheese and the crunchy topping. i grow jalapenos in my garden every summer and they grow like crazy.  from salsas, to the salsas, to more salsas ( i think that's all i really ever make with them). knowing that these p*#@ppers (i just can't say it again) are generally loaded in fat, i went on a search for a "healthier" version. i think i found one here .  i changed these up a bit by using reduced fat cream cheese, whole wheat flour, fat free milk, and egg whites.  next time i will use whole wheat panko bread crumbs. let me tell you, they were divine. and you won't miss the fat, i promise.
