    • About This Recipe

    “This is a good appetizer to serve when you are watching calories. Leave out the jalapeno & garlic, if you wish they are good even without them.Try using a Portabello and if you can find them Black Garlic. – Wonderful flavor. Black Garlic are from Korea and are fermented in a special process – Very mellow flavor”

  • “Bergy, thanks for posting a great tasting recipe.I made the recipe as you directed, and then I added 1 green onion, just for another layer of flavor.Really, you could play around with different flavors for these mushrooms, like using a chipotle instead of a jalapeño.This is definately a keeper.Thanks! :-)”

  • “I wasn’t really ‘over the moon’ for these.I mean, I liked them enough, but they definitely tasted “lowfat.”I think I would toy with the filling if I were to make them again, keeping them lowfat, but replacing the cottage cheese with something else.”

  • “They were way too spicy for my family and me, so next time I’ll use just one clove of garlic and maybe 1/3 cup of cottage cheese, but they were otherwise fantastic!”

  • “These were really good, but no matter how long I seemed to cook them they never really browned on top (the cheese just got a littly runny).No matter – they were wonderful!I added a lot more jalepeno and garlic, and they were still great.Thanks for the GREAT recipe!”

  • “These were delicious!I wasn’t sure how broiled cottage cheese would taste, but, it turned out to just be a creamy background to the jalapeno.I used Miss Annie’s suggestion and added some chopped green onion, also.I’ll definitely be making these again, especially since they’re only 1.1 WW point per serving.Thanks for sharing this recipe!”
