My kids love this snack—and I like that it's healthy. Coated with Italian seasoning, Parmesan cheese and garlic salt, these veggie sticks are broiled, not fried, so there's no guilt when you crunch into them. —Mary Murphy, Atwater, California
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

- Cooking spray
- 1 cup meatless pasta sauce, warmed
Directions
- Preheat broiler. In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs. In another shallow bowl, mix cheese, wheat germ and seasonings.
