2 tablespoons minced red bell pepper
2 tablespoons minced onion
1 garlic clove, minced
3/4 cup lump crabmeat, shell pieces removed
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 large egg whites
3 tablespoons plain fat-free yogurt
1 cup dry breadcrumbs
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1 teaspoon salt

Avocado dunk:
1/2 cup diced peeled avocado

1
Preheat broiler.

To prepare stuffed jalapenos, place peppers on a foil-lined baking sheet; broil 12 minutes or until blackened, turning occasionally. Place in a zip-top plastic bag; seal. Let stand 15 minutes; peel jalapenos. Cut a lengthwise slit in each, discarding stems, seeds, and membranes.
3
Place a medium nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over low heat until hot. Add bell pepper, onion, and garlic, and cook 5 minutes or until soft. Remove from heat; stir in crabmeat, 1 tablespoon cilantro, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Divide crab mixture evenly among jalapenos (each will be very full).

Preheat oven to 375u00b0.
5
Beat the egg whites in a medium bowl at high speed of a mixer until soft peaks form. Fold in yogurt.
6
Combine breadcrumbs, cornmeal, 1 teaspoon salt, and garlic powder in a small bowl. Dip each stuffed jalapeno in the egg white mixture; dredge in the breadcrumb mixture. Place the breaded jalapenos on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Lightly spray jalapenos with cooking spray. Bake at 375u00b0 for 15 minutes or until golden.

To prepare avocado dunk, place avocado and remaining ingredients in a food processor or blender, and process until smooth.
