Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Halve the jalapeГ±os lengthwise and remove the seeds, stems, and membranes. Be very careful when handling jalapeГ±os. Wash your hands frequently and well, and avoid touching your face and eyes. Wash halves and dry them very well. Set aside. Stir together cream cheese and shredded cheese. If you like, season cheese mixture with salt, black pepper, and/or garlic powder. Using a blender or food processor, grind Fiber One to a breadcrumb-like consistency. If you like, season crumbs with salt, black pepper, and/or garlic powder. Place crumbs in one small dish and egg substitute in another. Stuff each jalapeГ±o half with the cheese mixture. Next, carefully coat both sides of each jalapeГ±o half, first with egg substitute and then with Fiber One crumbs. Place jalapeГ±os on a baking pan sprayed with nonstick spray and place in the oven. Cook for 25 minutes (for very spicy poppers) to 30 minutes (medium-hot poppers). MAKES 2 SERVINGS 10 °Calories—This or That? Looking for a 100-calorie party food?
