I don’t know what it is about mushrooms, I love them. So I’m happily adding this recipe to my blog in hopes of trying it out pretty soon. This was another one from a fast and healthy recipe book I have, and serves 8 people. There’s only 50 tiny kcals per serving too so its basically a sin free appetizer as well that you can enjoy when on a diet. This recipe does call for a specific breading though, which I am sure can be substituted in many ways. If you figure out anything else you can use, let me know in the comments below, I look forward to your opinion and help in figuring out alternatives.

- 1 egg or 1/4 C refrigerated or frozen fat free egg product
