Substitute

Prepare using PHILADELPHIA Neufchatel Cheese.

Variation

To serve as stuffed jalapeño halves instead of the stuffed whole peppers, cut peppers lengthwise in half; scrape out seeds and veins. Fill peppers with cheese mixture, then coat and refrigerate as directed. Cook, in batches, in hot oil as directed, reducing the cook time to 1 to 2 min. or until golden brown.
