🥗Healthier: low-fat yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + vinegar

Low-fat yogurt reduces calories while maintaining tanginess.

French bread

🥗Healthier: whole grain bread

💰Cheaper: sub rolls

Whole grain bread adds fiber and nutrients.

1

Crack all the eggs in a bowl and separate the egg whites using your hands to leave the yolks behind.

2

Mix white cornmeal, a little flour, and ground panko breadcrumbs in a bowl for the breading.

3

Add dried garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, white pepper, celery seed, and fine salt to the breading mix and combine.

4

Prepare the oysters for breading by ensuring one hand is wet and the other is dry to avoid a messy breading process.

5

Toast the French bread with butter until warm and melted.

6

Shred lettuce and cabbage and toss them together for added crispiness.

7

Assemble the po boy by adding dressed lettuce, tomato, mayonnaise, and pickles to the toasted bread.

8

Fry the breaded oysters until golden brown and cooked through, checking the temperature by using the tip of your finger.

9

Place the fried oysters in the sandwich and serve.
