This appetizer calls for large portobello mushrooms. The stems are sautéed with mild, meaty poblano peppers and green onions, then stuffed into the caps with grated mozzarella and wheat germ, which provide a healthier alternative to breadcrumbs for a crisp topping. Bake the stuffed mushrooms until the cheese is melted and the tops are golden brown. Serve each serving with a dollop of sour cream and a squeeze of jalapeno for a spicier twist.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Trim the stems from the mushrooms and chop them coarsely. Use a spoon to scrape the gills from the caps; discard.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the butter, half the green onion, poblano garlic, and garlic and cook, stirring, until the peppers are softened, about 4 minutes. Add the mushroom stems and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup wheat germ and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat, stir in the parsley, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Place one-quarter of the mozzarella and poblano mixture into the mushroom caps and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of wheat germ and spray generously with cooking spray. Bake until the mushrooms are tender and the topping is golden, about 20 minutes. Top with sour cream, jalapeño, and the remaining green onions.
