Such a light dish is ideal when preparing a light, healthy meal. If you prefer your zucchini baked until crispy, slice it thinner and bake longer. Use parmesan, which does not melt but keeps its shape, turning into a fragrant baked crust (if desired, take any other cheese). Also, you can add salt to taste and put spices in breadcrumbs.
Here are a few tips to make your snack the most mouthwatering:
- For best results, it's best to bread zucchini sticks in two batches so the crumbs don't stick together.
- To make zucchini sticks milkier, replace the parmesan with more breadcrumbs.
- To make them gluten-free, replace the breadcrumbs with gluten-free ones.
Serve this dish with any sauce, but we advise you to make a sour cream sauce with greens. It turns out to be incredible!

Weight Loss Tips
Try not to fry vegetables. It is better to steam, stew, or boil. At the same time, eat at least four fresh vegetables or fruits a day.
Vegetables such as eggplant, sweet and hot peppers, zucchini, and cucumber, are ideal for fat burning.
Zucchini contains a minimum of calories, few carbohydrates, proteins, and a rich vitamin composition. It manages to accelerate the fight against excess weight.
