Fried zucchini: a comical coincidence of healthy and unhealthy! Combine baking mix, egg and parmesan to make a batter for frying up the sliced squash.

Love these! Also, layer in casserole dish, sprinkle with grated cheese, add tomato sauce, continue to layer till dish is filled, add shredded mozzarella and Parmesan over the top, and bake at 350 degrees, approx 30 - 45 minutes or till bubbly and browned on top. Enjoy!

Quick and easy. Fried eggplant strips, mushrooms and onion rings. Browned quickly. Omitted cheese from batter, used Bisquick. Delicious!

We make this every year when our garden is overrun by zucchini. I use a deep fryer and then serve these with either a ranch dressing for dipping or a buttermilk dressing.
