Good gravy, these were good! I used weight watchers spreadable neufchatel cheese and panko crumbs. The peppers I had offered a nice heat in a crispy shell. The centers were creamy, melty goodness. Yum! I appreciated the quick micro steaming method. Do wear gloves though when seeding the peppers. This recipe goes into my keeper file!
