Ingredients

• 1 medium sized zucchini (sliced into lengthwise)
• 1/2 cup plain flour

• 1 medium sized beaten egg
• Salt to taste
• 1 Tablespoon milk

1. Combine flour, egg, milk with grated cheese and salt in a mixing bowl.

Zucchini Fries

Ingredients:

• 2 medium zucchini, halved and sliced into sticks, excess seeds removed
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• Sea salt and black pepper, to taste
• ½ c. breadcrumbs
• ½ c. parmesan cheese, finely shredded
• Cooking spray

Yogurt Dipping Sauce:

• 1 c. Greek yogurt
• 1 T. lemon juice
• ½ c. fresh parsley, chopped
• ½ c. fresh dill, chopped
• Sea salt and black pepper, to taste

Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
2. In a shallow dish or pie pan, gently whisk the eggs together. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
3. In a second shallow dish or pie pan, combine breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese.
4. Dip each zucchini piece into the beaten egg mixture. Allow excess egg to drain off each piece before transferring to the bowl of seasoned breadcrumbs to dredge. Turn to evenly coat each piece of zucchini before transferring to the prepared baking sheet.
5. Arrange zucchini fries on baking sheet. Season with additional salt and black pepper, if desired. Lightly spray with cooking spray.
6. Place in the oven to roast until golden-brown and crisp, 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through the baking time.
7. In the meantime, whisk Greek yogurt, lemon juice, parsley, and dill in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

8. Serve the hot zucchini fries alongside the Greek yogurt dipping sauce. Enjoy!
