"Fried" Zucchini

As I've told you guys before, I'm a library ho. In my last trip I mentioned I picked up... what was it... seven cookbooks? Yeahhhh... so one of these books was The Most Decadent Diet EVER! It's really good and has a ton of recipes I want to try! So far I've made 3, and had rave reviews from all of them! As you know I posted about the pasta yesterday, so here is the rest of the recipe. Hope you like it as much as I did!


"Fried" Zucchini
Page 183 The Most Decadent Diet EVER!

Olive oil spray
1 1/2 tsp flour (I used whole wheat)
2 Tbs plain dried bread crumbs (I used panko)
1 1/2 tsp reduced fat Parmesan
1 tsp finely chopped fresh parsley
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black peper
1 large egg white
2 small zucchini (about 4 oz each) cut into 3/4 inch rounds

Directions (shortened into my words)

Preheat oven to 425. Mist a baking sheet with spray.

Put flour in one bowl, beat egg white in second bowl, put everything else into a plastic bag.

Dip rounds into flour, shake off excess, dip in egg white, then shake in plastic bag. Place onto baking sheet. Repeat will rest of rounds, make sure they aren't touching on the sheet. Mist tops with spray.

Bake for 7 minutes, then flip them over and bake an additional 4-6 minutes.

Chow!
