Method

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Cut the zucchini lengthwise into 1/4" square matchstick strips - skin on or off, your preference. Place the zucchini strips into a large plate or pan. Add balsamic vinegar. Toss/mix to ensure all strips are coated. Sprinkle the Italian bread crumbs over all strips. Toss/mix to ensure all strips are coated with the bread crumbs. Add the parmesan cheese to the crumb-coated zucchini strips. Toss/mix again until they all have the parmesan cheese. Place strips on a baking rack so they do not touch each other. Bake at 425 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until browned. Add kosher salt to taste. Remove from oven, place on individual serving plates. Place warmed spaghetti sauce in a shot glass or small bowl. Dunk the zucchini in the spaghetti sauce.

 

Notes: Fun way to add squash to your meals. I used pre-made breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese to keep it simple.

 

Number of Servings: Serves 4 - 6
