I’m always on the hunt for great recipes and found the Hungry Girl Cookbook. Its based off of the famous Hungry Girl website (www.hungrygirl.com) and features low-calorie options for decadent foods such as onion rings, chicken strips and chocolate gooey desserts.
The onion rings below are only 160 calories for the WHOLE recipe (which makes a huge pile!)
One onion (large) sliced (I like Vidalia!)
1 cup of original All Bran
Salt/pepper (and any other spices you may like, garlic powder etc..)
1/4 cup fat free egg substitute (egg beaters)
In a food processor (or something like the magic bullet) ground up your cereal and spices to make a ‘breading’.
dip your onions in the egg substitute and then in the ‘breading’.
Lay them onto a baking sheet sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Bake about 20 min. at 375 until soft.
Delish!
You can make chicken strips the same way using boneless-skinless chicken breasts. A whole sinful meal for less than 350 calories.
