"Fried" Squash*
This idea was presented at a recent Weight Watcher's meeting. One can have almost traditional "fried" summer veggies: *squash, zucchini, green tomatoes, onions, okra, green peppers, mushrooms, etc.
The method:
Slice all veggies into 1/4" slices. (Recently I used yellow squash with onion.)
Heat a skillet that has been sprayed (or add a little good-for-you oil.) Layer a single layer of veggies, spray veggies lightly, sprinkle with cornmeal. Repeat layers until you have added all your veggies. Then begin to turn the veggies--by the time you have added all the veggies they will have begun to brown.
How to count:
The vegetables are usually 0 points as is the spray. 2 tablespoons of cornmeal is 1 point. (Measure before you sprinkle.) I didn't have cornmeal in my pantry when I first did this so I used some cornmeal mix. The points are the same and it worked. If you used oil, count points appropriately.
Enjoy!
