Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 cups Grated Zucchini (about 500g)
  • 1/2 cup Mozzarella Cheese (about 60g)
  • 1/3 cup Parmesan Cheese (about 40g)
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1 tsp Garlic Parsley Salt (5g)
Topping Ingredients
  • 1 cup Grated Cheese of Choice (for topping, about 120g) Mozzarella or a Mexican blend works wonderfully.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Squeeze all of the juices out of the grated zucchini using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together the grated zucchini, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, and garlic parsley salt until well combined.
  4. Line a baking dish with parchment paper. Spoon the zucchini mixture onto the lined dish, spreading it out into a thin layer—around half an inch thick.
  5. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until it starts to turn golden brown.
  6. Once baked, sprinkle your choice of cheese on top of the zucchini crust.
  7. Return the baking dish to the oven and bake for an additional 2-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  8. Allow the cheesy zucchini breadsticks to cool slightly, then slice into sticks and serve warm.

Notes

Pair with marinara sauce or your favorite dipping sauce. Perfect for parties, lunchboxes, or as a healthy snack. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes or fresh herbs for an extra kick.
