This sounds so yummy! Crusting with pork grinds is something I thought about after I bought a bag. Happening tonite!

This sounded tasty until I got to the pork rind portion.

Very good recipe. I used the spicy pork rinds and omitted the cheese. I had a really hard time getting the crushed pork rinds to stick though.

All Bran cereal crushed is a good coating.

I've been craving for fried Zucchini so I'm going to try this just leaving out the pork rinds.

You can't have pork rinds on South Beach, but sounds good!

I left out the pork rinds and added some nature's seasoning. They were really good.
