Skinny shake mix

1. Dave, i found this recipe about 15 years ago in a book by barbara gibbons
   entitled "the slim gourmet".
2. My family has always loved it, and i especially
   like it because it makes preparing dinner so easy.
3. Put the bread crumbs in a deep bowl.
4. Stir in the salad oil with a fork
   or pastry blender.
5. Add all the seasonings and others to suit yourself --
   herbs, garlic or onion powder, lemon pepper, etc.
6. Keep, well covered, in a
   moisture-proof container with a tightly fitted lid.
7. Use as needed.
8. Makes enough for about 20 cut-up chickens or 30 servings of fish.
9. Dave, i have used this for years...it is especially good on chicken or pork
   chops.
10. I store in a tupperware container, and dish out just enough into
    another bowl for the meal i am making...toss chicken, pork, or fish in the mix
    and bake.
11. .
12. The best thing about this recipe is that it doesn"t take long to make
    dinner.
13. Simply toss the meat into the crumbs, put on a cookie sheet or in a
    baking dish, and bake.
14. I usually put a baked potato in at the same time...
15. 
    both meat and potato are ready at the same time.
16. Now...for variations: first, i prefer to use seasoned breadcrumbs as my
    base, and add the above ingredients, too.
17. Second, recently i have
    experimented and found a new twist to making pork chops.
18. I put the chops in a
    marinate of honey, sherry and soy sauce...leave in the refrigerator to
    marinate all day, while at work.
19. Before baking, i toss the pork chops in the
    crumb mixture to coat.
20. My husband loves this recipe! it gives the chops just
    a hint of a sweet flavor.
21. Btw, chicken or chops prepared this way comes out
    of the oven plump and juicy.
22. Bake at 375 °F for 1 hour
