Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400F. Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. In a shallow bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, cheese, dried herbs, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Coat the zucchini in the egg/milk mixture, then in the breadcrumb mixture. Arrange the zucchini in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for about 15 minutes, flipping the zucchini once.


For the dressing, whisk together all ingredients. Serve the zucchini alongside the dressing for dipping.
