I made these tonight and they were SO good! Just thought I'd share:

Slice up zucchini into sticks
Mix one egg in a bowl with a splash of water
Mix 2-3 TBL breadcrumbs (I am gf so I used Corn Flakes Crumbs) into a separate bowl with 1 TBL Parmesan

Dip zucchini in egg and then breadcrumb mixture, lay on greased/sprayed pan and cook at 450 for 20-25 min.

I dipped it in 1/4 cup Prego sauce, YUMMMMM! And I calculated it at roughly 150 cals for one large zucchini, 185 with the dipping sauce.

    Yea, the hardest part is waiting the 20 min for them to be ready! LOL

    Oh- and I only calculated half an egg because I added water to the egg and didn't even use half the mixture for dipping...

    I buy them at Sprouts, its Southern Homestyle brand called Corn Flake Crumbs. And then yes, I added a dash of Italian Seasoning and Garlic.

    Sounds very good. I think I'll try these, but since I'm doing low carb I'll probably substitute the bread crumbs with shredded parmessan.
