Taste of Summer — Zucchini Recipe

by | Aug 22, 2014

With August steadily rolling by, I look at my vegetable garden, which is still going strong and thinking about recipes for my zucchini. It’s always nice to have a new way to serve this vegetable that is both appealing to the eye and taste buds.

I consider many things when placing a recipe here. I want something easy to make and I want it to taste good. It may combine other flavors which is a bonus that kids will enjoy, too. I do want family pleasing recipes.

For this delicious snack or side dish, you’ll need:

  • 4 zucchini
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1/2 cup of milk
  • 1 cup shredded Paramesan Cheese
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • Vegetable cooking spray

Here’s what you need to do:

  1. Preheat oven to 425°.
  2. Cut zucchini into 3-inch sticks.
  3. Get out a small bowl and whisk egg whites, then add milk.
  4. In another bowl Combine Parmesan  Cheese and breadcrumbs in a separate bowl.
  5. Dip zucchini sticks into egg mixture, and then roll in breadcrumb mixture.
  6. Get out a baking sheet and coat with cooking spray.
  7. Place zucchini on baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until golden brown.

This should make about 64 fries. You can dip them in Ranch Dressing or a sauce of your choice or eat them plain. This is a real crowd pleaser to give your guests at your Labor Day Bar-B-Que.

Enjoy!
