Introduction

I love fried mushrooms, but only six can be over 450 calories--and if I have a dip with them, it is higher! So, instead, I "oven fry" and get the same crunch, flavor and enjoyment without all the calories. My "dip" is 3 tablespoons Duke's light mayo with 1 tablespoon yellow or spicy mustard. They don't look as golden and light as fried--but they are just as tasty and crunchy--and 20, with dip, have 366 calories!

Ingredients

20 white button mushrooms

egg whites or egg beaters

salt

Pam olive oil spray

1 cup Panko bread crumbs

3 tablespoons Dukes light mayonnaise

1 tablespoon yellow or spicy mustard

Directions

Preheat oven to 450. Wash and lightly salt mushrooms. Dip them into the egg whites, then roll in the Panko crumbs. Place on a cookie sheet or an oven "fryer" pan. Spray with pam olive oil. Bake 10 minutes, then turn and spray again. Cook 2-5 more minutes and remove from the oven. Let cook (they get more crispy when they cool a little). Mix the mayo and the mustard together for a dip. Enjoy!!

You can also use flavored Panko crumbs, garlic, onion or other flavorings to kick up the flavor, but I love them "plain".

FYI--the calorie count includes the mayo/mustard dip!
