I modified a recipe for Zucchini fries because I REFUSE to eat breadcrumbs.
So here's a heart healthy recipe for your fry fix:
1/2 cup oatmeal ( quick, old fashioned or rolled)
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese grated ( or substitute wheat germ/ crushed almonds)
1beaten egg with water
Spices of your choosing ( I used crushed red pepper and Italian seasoning)
Turn your oven onto 425
Throw your oatmeal into a food processor and process until it looks like a coarse flour. Add cheese ( or substitute ), and spices and process untill dispersed.
Lightly coat a cookie sheet with olive oil .
Set up your coat station with strips of your zucchini and two separate bowls for your beaten egg and oatmeal crumbs. Dip zucchini in egg, then coating, and place on pan. When done bake 10-15 mins , flip, then another 10-15. Enjoy with marinara sauce or tzatziki sauce. ( a cucumber yogurt sauce)
Hope y'all enjoy this, I LOVE baking things coated in oatmeal.
