This Baked Parmesan Zucchini Crisp, tender zucchini sticks oven-roasted to perfection. It’s healthy, nutritionally beneficial and completely addictive. Zucchini and parmesan cheese. It’s really a match made in paradise. Of course should all of vegetables were such as that, I would grow to be a vegetarian.
No, but this is undoubtedly among the better veggie side dishes I have ever made. And the very best thing about that is there is zero deep frying or sauteing of any type. Only cut on your zucchini into quarters lengthwise, scatter on such a Parmesan goodness and then throw in the oven to allow it to become crisp and nice. Allow me to let mine broil the previous few moments to find that great golden brown crust. It’s really fine, your picky eaters will probably be begging for seconds and thirds.
