Baked Breaded Zucchini Sticks
from http://www.skinnytaste.com/2009/01/baked-zucchini-sticks-13-pts.html


3 medium zucchini
1 large egg white
1/3 cup panko bread crumbs
2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste
cooking spray

slice zucchini into strips and lightly salt to remove access water. let salt draw the water out for at least an hour. 

in a small bowl, beat egg whites.

In another bowl, mix breadcrumbs, garlic powder, cheese and pepper.

Wipe off excess water on zucchini sticks and pat dry. Dredge zucchini sticks into eggs then into bread crumb  mixture, a few at a time and shake to coat. Put the breaded zucchini in a single layer on a piece of wax paper coated with cooking spray. (at his point, i put the zucchini sticks into a bag and placed them in the freezer) Spray more cooking spray on top.

Bake at 425° for about 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
