Cheese Zucchini breadsticks - Weekend Recipe


We have shared a number of different recipes on this months theme, as zucchini are a great medium for flavors.  Today I thought an appetizer would be perfect for the weekend.


Cheesy Zucchini Breadsticks



4 medium zucchinis (washed, not peeled- about 3 cups)

2-4 cups cheese (shredded) – pick your faves

2-3 large eggs

1/3 cup flour

Seasoning (we recommend BYP Italian Seasoning or Fiesta Dip Mix)

Salt & Pepper to taste



Directions:

Pre-heat the 450 degrees F. Shred the Zucchini and place in a bowl and sprinkle with salt to release the moisture.  Let it sit 10 to 15 minutes, then squeeze the zucchini in a clean towel to remove most if not all of the liquid.



Mix zucchini, eggs and flour in a medium bowl.  You want the mixture loose and spreadable not liquid, so add one egg at a time to see if three are needed.



Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray or line with parchment.  Spread the zucchini mixture into a large thin rectangle.




Bake 25 minutes or until the edges are nicely brown.  Make sure it’s nice and golden on the sides and top so the crust is not mushy.



Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F, sprinkle the crust with cheese and seasoning and continue baking until cheese is just melted.



Let cool 2 minutes then cut into sticks.  Serve with a marinara (we recommend a tomato sauce seasoned with our BYP Marinara seasoning.
