Archive for the ‘Zucchini Sticks’ Category

Our daughter had these at my friend Ashley’s and LOVED them.  I changed the recipe a little bit (to make it a little healthier) and the result was still a winner!

Ingredients:

Zucchini

Sea Salt

Italian Seasoning

Garlic cloves (2 or 3)

Olive oil Spray

Foil

Preheat oven 450.

Wash and dry zucchini.  Cut off ends. Slice in the middle (the short way) then slice those in half, then slice those in half. You end up with 8 pieces per one zucchini.

Foil line a cookie sheet.  Spray cookie sheet with olive oil spray (must be olive oil spray) Put all zucchini sticks on foil.

Press garlic cloves and dot on some of the zucchini (or you can toss in a bowl with zucchini, olive oil, sea salt and italian seasoning as original  recipe calls for..) Spray zucchini with olive oil spray, sprinkle generously with Italian Seasoning and sprinkle (not as generously) with Sea Salt.  Bake in oven for about 15 minutes or until bottom of sticks are browned.  I end up flipping (with spatula) sticks and repeat spray and sprinkle of seasoning and salt then cook for about 15 more minutes.  (until browned a bit)

Note:  If anyone does not want to press the garlic, you are probably fine without it  OR you may want to try substituting fresh garlic and Sea Salt with just Lawry’s Garlic Salt.  If anyone does this LET ME KNOW HOW IT CAME OUT!
