Baked Zucchini Crisps

Baked Zucchini Crisps are a different and delicious way to use up all that zucchini you have growing in your garden this summer.  Or if you are trying to get the kids (or the hubby) to eat more veggies - this will do the trick!  Serves 4-6.

Ingredients:

- 4 medium zucchini, sliced to ~1/2" slices
- 1 1/4 c. panko
- 2 extra large egg, whisked
- 1/3 c. parmesan cheese
- 1/4 tea cayenne (optional)
- 1/2 tea garlic powder
- 1 tea parsley 
- 1/2 c. flour
- 2 T olive oil
- Salt & Pepper

Directions:

1.  Preheat oven to 400°F.  Line two 9x13 baking sheets with foil and place cooling rack on top of each.
2.  Set up three traditional breading bowls.  In bowl one, flour seasoned with salt and pepper.  In bowl two, the whisked eggs.  In bowl three, the panko, parmesan, cayenne, garlic powder, parsley, olive oil and salt and pepper.
2.  Dip one zucchini slice in the flour bowl.  Coat and shake off excess flour.  Next dip the slice in the egg mixture.  Coat and move to the panko mixture.  Coat evenly and move to cookie sheet/cooling rack.
3.  Repeat this process with each zucchini slice until finished.
4.  Bake for 20-25 minutes until zucchini are golden brown.  
5.  Let rest for 5 minutes prior to serving.  Enjoy!
