Why Weight Snack of the Week…:)

Yep that is right, at Why Weight we do it a little different!!!  We eat!!:) 

Here are the recipes from the meeting today:)  I got them from a new cookbook I got last week…Hungry Girl, I love her website, so I grabbed while @ Sams and my nose has been in it all week!:)  There are some great recipes in there…:)  I HIGHLY recommend it for sure!:)  She does some pretty cool stuff in there, so I decided to do one this week that was the most intriguing to me…LOL

LORD OF THE ONION RINGS

  • 1 large onion
  • 1/2 cup Fiber One cereal (original)
  • 1/4 cup fat-free liquid egg substitute
  • Dash of Salt
  • Optional:  additional salt, black pepper, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, etc

 

  • Preheat oven @ 375 degrees.
  • Cut the ends off of the onion, and remove the outer layer.  Cut onion into 1/2 inch wide slices, and separate into rings.
  • Using a blender or food processor, gind Fiber One to a breadcrumb-like consistency.  Pour Fiber One “breadcrumbs” into a small dish and mix with salt and any optional spice you like.
  • Next fill a small bowl with egg substitute.  One by one, coat each ring with egg and then in the “breadcrumbs”.
  • Evenly place rings on a baking sheet sprayed with nonstick spray.  Cook for 20-25 minutes, flipping rings over about halfway through.

Makes 1 HUMONGOUS serving.

The only thing I would change is…add seasoning!!!  I was talking to Lisa when I made them and forgot that step…so ADD SEASONING!!!  that is the only thing…they were pretty good…I would make em again!  And for 2 pts and core…not to shabby!!!:)  I was pleased with this weeks selection!:)
