Savory Zucchini Stix

I LOVED these. And because they are baked, you use just the egg white, and I used skim milk, they're probably pretty healthy. (Got this out of a "Silly Snacks" cookbook)

2 small zucchini, quartered (We used one large and I cut them into spears)
3 tbls seasoned bread crumbs
2 tbls grated Parmesan cheese (I used shredded)
1 egg white (I used the whole egg)
1 tsp milk
marinara and/or ranch dressing for dipping

combine bread crumbs and cheese in one shallow dish
combine milk and egg in the other

dip zucchini sticks in crumbs, then egg mixture, and back into crumbs

place on cookie sheet sprayed with cooking spray

spray sticks with cooking spray as well

Bake at 400 degrees for 15 to 18 minutes.

Serve with warm marinara and/or ranch dressing for dipping.

Zucchini and Onion Saute

This tastes similar to what you'd get at a Japanese Hibachi style restaurant. A friend of mine gave me some zucchini from her garden so we made bread with one and this with the other.

1 onion, cut into slivers
1 medium zucchini (about 3 cups) cut into strips or chunks
butter
soy sauce
garlic salt
sesame seeds

Melt butter in pan. I used about 3 tbls. Add onion and zucchini. Sprinkle with garlic salt and sesame seeds. Drizzle over soy sauce until lightly coated. Saute until onions and zucchini are crisp tender. You could add mushrooms too, but I didn't have any on hand.
