Nat's Oven Baked Zucchini Sticks

by natdabrat

Servings: 6 servings

INGREDIENTS

3 medium zucchini
3/4 cup whole-wheat breadcrumbs (any kind will do)
1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano (or 1 tsp dried)
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt (sometimes use celery salt)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 450°F. Spray large baking sheet with oil cooking spray. Cut zucchini into slices, (about 1-1/2 inches by 3/4 inch). Toss zucchini in a bowl with the olive oil. Mix dry ingredients in a plastic bag.
Place zucchini, a handful at a time, in the plastic bag, and shake to coat. Bake 20 minutes. Turn zucchini, bake another 10 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve with my <A HREF=/recipes/recipe/19375,nats_creamy_horseradish_dip.phtml>Creamy Horseradish Dip</A> or your favorite dip.

I love zucchini sticks, and these baked ones are better and healthier than any fried version.
