I think I want the whole batch. :)
This sounds great. I'm always trying to improve upon the common "freedom fry" (freedom to eat as many as you want, that is).
I am going to try these! I have too much zucchini and I am sick of bread:)
Lo... This is absolutely an ingenious way to prepare zucchini!
I love zucchinis, so this recipe sounds awesome... Going to give it a go.
Score the skin of zucchini like done to cucumbers for apperence the breading will stick to skin better.
