Ingredients
- 3 whole Zucchini
- 1 cup Whole Wheat Bread Crumbs
- ½ cups Parmesan Cheese, Shredded
- 1 whole Lemon, Zested
- 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black Pepper

Preparation
Preheat oven to 425°F. Cut zucchini into finger-sized sticks and set aside.
Combine bread crumbs, Parmesan, lemon zest, salt, and pepper in a food processor and pulse a few times until ingredients are well mixed. Place crumbs in a medium-sized bowl.
Create an assembly line, first with the zucchini, then a bowl of the beaten eggs, then the bowl with the crumb mixture, and finally two baking sheets that have been covered with non-stick spray.
Coat each piece of zucchini in the eggs, then cover throughly with the crumb mixture, and set each stick on a pan.
Bake sticks for 14 minutes or until bottoms are golden brown, then flip and bake an additional 14 minutes. Serve hot.
