Quick and Easy Baked Zucchini Fries

Zucchini is taking the form of fries today. Even better is that they are baked zucchini fries. These fries get a nice crunch breading on them.
I loved the idea of using a packet of Shake and Bake as part of the coating. I don’t really know if it matters, but I used the pork variety.
The zucchini first gets a coating in flour. Then, you coat them in an water/egg mixture. Last, is the crunchy coating made with Shake and Bake, Parmesan cheese, and salt .
These were quite yummy. You can dip these baked zucchini fries in ranch dressing or marinara sauce. Either one is great.
