I'm not that experienced in the kitchen, but this recipe is pretty fool proof! I followed the instructions to a t and it turned out just right. Maybe next time I'll try some experimenting with it.

I make something very similar to this all the time(I usually use a whole egg and fat full Parmesan)! Croutons are a great substitute for bread crumbs in any recipe. Sometimes instead of eggs, I marinate my chicken in Caesar dressing then coat in croutons.

Add a little spice by adding red pepper to the egg whites and parmesan cheese.
