Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a bowl, blend cream cheese, garlic, onions, cheddar cheese, and lime juice.
  2. Cut peppers in half lengthwise (you may want to wear gloves if you're sensitive to hot peppers). Pull out and discard seeds and veins, leaving stem and outer bits of the pepper intact (to form a cup). Fill pepper halves equally with cheese mixture, spreading surface smooth.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk egg whites until slightly frothy. Put panko crumbs in another small bowl. Dip filled pepper halves, one at a time, in egg whites, then roll in crumbs. Set coated peppers on a parchment lined baking sheet, leaving a little space between them.
  4. Bake at 350 deg. F. till crumbs are slightly darker brown and crisp, about 20 minutes. Serve hot or room temperature.
