Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place cereal in a blender/food processor. Add ranch mix and 1/4 teaspoon each of garlic powder, onion powder, and oregano. Add a dash each of salt and pepper. Grind to a breadcrumb-like consistency. Transfer to a medium bowl and set aside. In another medium bowl, combine egg substitute with a dash each of garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir thoroughly and set aside. Slice zucchini into 1/2 wide circles. Blot any excess moisture. Spray a large baking sheet with nonstick spray. Coat zucchini in seasoned egg substitute. One at a time, give zucchini a shake to remove excess egg substitute, coat with crumbs, and lay flat on baking sheet. Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes, carefully flipping halfway through baking, or until outsides are crispy and zucchini is cooked through.
