While delicious, Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeño Poppers are high in calories and fat. To make them healthier, consider using turkey bacon or thinly sliced prosciutto for less fat. Opt for low-fat cream cheese and reduce the amount of cheddar. Jalapeños are rich in vitamin C and capsaicin, which may boost metabolism. For a lighter version, try stuffing with a mixture of Greek yogurt and feta cheese instead of cream cheese. You could also bake the jalapeños without bacon and sprinkle with crispy turkey bacon bits after cooking. Remember, moderation is key – enjoy these as an occasional treat rather than a regular snack.
