Garlic Zucchini Bites

Ingredients

• 1 cup shredded zucchini drained well


• 1 clove garlic grated fine


• 1/3 cup breadcrumbs


• 1/4 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese


• 1 large egg


• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives (or 1 tablespoon dried chives)


• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (or 1/2 tablespoon dried)


• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh basil (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)


• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)


• pinch of salt and pepper


• tomato sauce for dipping

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400˚F. Lightly coat a baking sheet with olive oil or non-stick spray. Set aside.


2. Use a box grater to grate the zucchini into a clean towel. Roll up the towel and twist to wring out the moisture.


3. Grate the garlic using the small holes on the box grater.


4. Add the shredded zucchini, garlic, egg, breadcrumbs, parmesan, chives, parsley, basil, oregano, salt and pepper to a medium bowl. Mix well to combine.


5. Shape a tablespoon of the mixture into your hands, pat into small balls, and place on the baking sheet.


6. Bake for 15-18 minutes in the preheated oven until golden. Serve warm with marinara sauce.
