Zucchini Fries!

Lindsay made these Saturday night and they were great! A lot of people were curious about the recipe after she posted a Facebook status about them, so here you go:

	You will need:
	Olive oil cooking spray 1 tsp of Italian seasoning 1/2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
	3/4 tsp table salt
	3/4 cup(s) dried plain bread crumbs, panko-variety suggested
	2 medium uncooked zucchini
	2 large egg white(s), whipped until frothy

How to prepare:

Preheat oven to 425ºF. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. In a small bowl, mix together Italian seasoning, flour and salt. Place bread crumbs in another small bowl.

Slice each zucchini in half lengthwise and then each half into 2 pieces width wise. Next slice each zucchini chunk into 4 fries. Dredge a zucchini fry in flour mixture and then dip into egg whites; dredge in bread crumbs. Place coated zucchini on prepared baking sheet and repeat with remaining ingredients; liberally coat with cooking spray.

Roast, turning once, until desired crispness, about 12 minutes.

Notes:


You can use this technique with any summer squash or eggplant. It also can be used for thick-cut onion rings or even green tomatoes!

For extra crispy fries, increase the oven temperature to 500ºF and knock 2 minutes off the cooking time.

Sprinkle a little grated Parmesan for some extra flavor! 

Thanks to Pinterest for inspiring such a culinary masterpiece.

ENJOY,
