Oven Fried Okra

Every southerner loves their fried okra!  This is a much lightened up version, but still crunchy and delicious!

Ingredients:
Okra(however much you want to make)
About 2 cups of cornmeal
couple of dashes of Tony’s Cajun seasoning
2 egg whites, beaten (I’ve also used buttermilk in place of the egg whites and it’s delish!)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 425.
Slice up okra into bite size pieces.
Combine cornmeal with a few dashes of seasoning in a Ziploc bag.
Dip okra in egg whites, then put into the Ziploc with cornmeal.  Shake. 
Put okra onto pan and into oven.
Bake until golden brown.
