Zucchini Fries, Baked, Not Fried

Baked, Not Fried, Zucchini Fries

Budget Cooking

Zucchini + egg + milk + Parmesan + breadcrumbs =Zucchini Fries

Summer zucchini is bountiful right now. And if you (or your neighbors) have a garden, you’re likely loaded down with the green stuff. Here’s how to put it to delicious use. 

Preheat oven to 425°. Cut 2 zucchini into 3-inch sticks. Whisk an egg white in a small bowl, and add 1⁄4 cup milk. Combine 1⁄2 cup shredded Parmesan and 1⁄2 cup seasoned breadcrumbs in a separate bowl. Dip zucchini sticks into egg mixture, and then roll in breadcrumb mixture. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray, and place zucchini on sheet. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until golden brown. Makes about 32 fries.
