Note: This recipe appears in the WW Family Meals Cookbook. When you think of onion rings, you think of greasy guilty pleasures that are crunchy. These onion rings are just as delicious as fried onion rings and I think they taste better than fried. These onion rings go great with any protein, especially grilled steak. I do highly recommend putting the bread crumbs and seasoning in a brown paper bag because it will be easier to coat the onion rings when your shake them all around. If you don't have Old Bay seasoning in your pantry, paprika will work just as well. You will need a knife and a fork to enjoy these onion rings they are that tasty.
