    Put your zucchini to good use with a healthy version of the tasty french fry! No shortness of tastiness! A perfect aioli sauce goes alongside for the ultimate condiment.

    I’m about to prepare a frozen pizza. Don’t judge. But I’m wishing I had saved some of these zucchini fries that I made the other night. Be sure to try my version of seasoned sour cream/aioli. Otherwise, go get some ranch dipping sauce too. That’s never bad.

    HOW TO MAKE BAKED ZUCCHINI

    First, prepare the zucchini fries. You can make the seasoned sour cream while the fries are baking.

    STEP 1

    Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. Coat a nonstick baking sheet with cooking spray or spritz some olive oil and set aside.

    STEP 2

    In a small bowl, combine:

    • 1/2 cup skim milk

    • 1 large egg

    Whisk until combined.

    STEP 3

    In another shallow bowl, combine:

    • 1/2 cup seasoned panko breadcrumbs

    • 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

    Mix well.

    STEP 4

    Cut 2 large zucchinis into 3-inch by 1/2-inch strips.

    Coat the zucchini strips with the milk-egg mixture, followed by the breadcrumb-cheese mixture.

    Place onto the prepared baking sheet.

    Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown. Serve with…

    HOW TO PREPARE DIPPING SAUCE

    In a medium bowl, combine:

    • 1 cup mayonnaise

    • 1 cup sour cream

    Stir well. .

    Then add:

    • Fresh Lemon Juice from 1/2 of a lemon

    • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

    • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley

    • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt (garlic powder works in a pinch)

    • 1/2 teaspoon paprika

    • 1/2 teaspoon salt

    • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

    • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

    Mix well. Refrigerate for a minimum of 1 hour before serving

    RECIPE TIPS

    • You can also serve this dipping sauce with other another vegetable or crackers or on your burger!

    • To keep this recipe on the healthier side, substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream.

    WHEN IS ZUCCHINI READY TO EAT

    When ripe, a zucchini should feel mostly firm but give a little when pressed with your fingers. The skin should appear dark green and glossy. The flesh of the zucchini should not be mushy or tough and should have a yellowish-white color.

    HEALTH BENEFITS OF ZUCCHINI

    Filled with potassium that is heart healthy, it’s also high in antioxidants like Vitamin B6 and C. It’s also great because it has zero fat and has needed fiber for your diet.

      Oh, these look so good! I will definitely have to try them. By the way, I love to mix different herbs and spices into my sour cream to use as a dip… basil, dill, cumin, chili powder, cayenne, garlic powder, pepper, etc. No proportions, just whatever looks good. Yummmmmm! Now where are the chips?
