INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: If you cannot find butter-garlic spray, use butter spray and substitute garlic salt for the salt. Cut each zucchini lengthwise into 4 strips. Dip strips into egg substitute, then roll in bread crumbs to coat. Arrange in single layer on baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray. Lightly spray strips with cooking spray. Bake in a preheat 450F oven until browned and fork-tender, about 25 minutes. Lightly spinkle with salt to taste and Parmesan. NUTRITION estimated by publisher: 85 cals, 2g fat (21% cff). NOTES : You can achieve a flavor close to that of deep-fried zucchini strips by using nonfat egg substitute and bread crumbs as a batter, then baking the zucchini in a hot oven. There's a clean, non-greasy taste to the baked strips that you might like even better than the taste of deep-fried.
