Zucchini Nuggets

Zucchini Nuggets

Ingredients:

• 1 ½ cups zucchini (shredded and drained)

• 1 cup bread crumbs

• ½ tbsp italian seasoning

• ½ cup shredded parmesan cheese

• 1 egg

Directions:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.

• Shred your zucchini and drain thoroughly. I use a cheesecloth and squeeze out all the excess moisture I can. Your zucchini doesn't have to be bone-dry but the drier the better.

• Add this zucchini to a large bowl and combine with the shredded mozzarella, breadcrumbs, and egg.

• Mix until homogeneous.

• Take 1 tbsp of zucchini batter and form into nugget shapes. Place the nuggets on a parchment paper lined sheet tray. Continue until all zucchini is used.

• Bake for 20-25, flipping halfway. Serve with your dipping sauce of choice.
