This is one of the faves in our house. Not only is it low in fat and higher in fiber than the traditional version, it tastes so good the family won't even notice!
Note:
To make the whole wheat bread crumbs, I keep crumbs and ends from loaves of whole wheat bread in the freezer. Then it is there and ready to use whenever I please. However, they can also be made in a hurry by toasting slices of whole wheat bread, and letting it cool for about an hour until it crumbles easily.
