Here is how you make Fiber-Fried Green Beans with Spicy Cucumber Ranch Dip:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine dip ingredients in a food processor or small blender and blend until smooth. Place dip in a dish, and then cover and chill in the fridge. Place the green beans in a large pot with 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, cook for 9 minutes. Carefully drain the beans, and then place them in cold water for a few minutes to stop the cooking process. Drain and dry them well. Fill a small bowl with egg substitute, and set aside. In a separate bowl, combine the Fiber One "breadcrumbs" with the spices. Cover a large baking pan with aluminum foil and/or nonstick spray. Set aside. Place about 1/3rd of the crumb mixture into a large sealable plastic bag. One by one, dip green beans into the egg substitute, and place them in the bag with the breadcrumbs -- continue this with 1/3rd of the beans. Seal the bag and shake it up. Remove the "breaded" green beans, and place them on the pan. Repeat this process two more times, so all of the beans are coated. Pop the pan in the oven and cook for 16 minutes, flipping green beans halfway through cooking. Beans are done once they're crispy. Allow green beans to cool slightly, and then serve with the dipNumber of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SLJGEMINI75.
