Breaded Baked Zucchinis

Zucchinis cut into strips are breaded in a mixture of Panko bread crumbs, garlic, onion and other seasonings. The breaded zucchini strips are then baked in the oven. These are great as an appetizer or as a vegetable side dish. You can the bread zucchini strips in advance and bake when ready, they are great with homemade ranch dressing.
