    My thoughts exactly...you could probably even cut back more by just using egg whites.

    This looks wonderful. I'll definitely give that a try. Question though: how many servings is that supposed to be? I know a tbsp of oil is 120 calories, so I'm wondering how much of the recipe that nutritional breakdown is for.

    Thanks for the brilliant idea.

    I wonder if they would fry up nicely if you sprayed the pan with pam thus eliminating most of the fat calories. I plan to try it with the pam when I try this recipe. And I think adding some peppers, onions and garlic ( instead of the powders) would really give it flavor.
