I remember seeing an episode of Calorie Commando on FoodTV that redid mozzarella sticks... it was a really simple recipe too (mozzarella, cooking spray, and seasoned breadcrumbs) and its baked instead of fried. Haven't tried this recipe myself, but I'm sure it's less unhealthy than the restaurant fried variant.
Each serving (3 "pieces") has 234 calories, 13g fat (6 saturated) and 12g carbs.
Also, for dipping opt for pico de gallo instead of the usual marinara. Tons more fresh flavor and much less calories.
