Whether you're trying to make kids eat their veggies or trying to incorporate more veggies into your own diet, these are sure to please.
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Shred your zucchini and drain thoroughly. I use a cheesecloth and squeeze out all the excess moisture I can. Your zucchini doesn't have to be bone-dry but the drier the better.
Add this zucchini to a large bowl and combine with the shredded mozzarella, breadcrumbs, and egg.
Mix until homogeneous.
Take 1 tbsp of zucchini batter and form into nugget shapes. Place the nuggets on a parchment paper lined sheet tray. Continue until all zucchini is used.
Bake for 20-25, flipping halfway. Serve with your dipping sauce of choice.
