Zucchini fries

Okay, these are super delicious and so easy to make! 

What you need - 

2-3 zucchinis

1/2 cup egg whites (I had Blue menu free run) 

1 cup italian bread crumbs

2 tbs grated Parmesan 

1 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp salt and pepper

So, cut the zucchinis in the shape of fries, spread the "fries" on the paper towel, to get rid of extra moisture. 

Meanwhile, pour the egg whites in a bowl. In another bowl mix breadcrumbs, cheese, salt, pepper and garlic powder. 

Preheat the oven to 425F. 

Put a parchment paper on a big baking sheet. Spray it with olive oil. 

Dip your zucchini fries in egg whites first, then the breadcrumb mixture. 

Layer the fries so they don't touch and bake for 20-25 min until golden brown. 

Enjoy! ❤️
