Zucchini Bites

I wish I could take full credit for this incredible edible.......but I can't. I got this in a few different email/recipe lists I follow. The first few I deleted.....and then I was chatting with a fellow WWer and decided these just might be worth making. And they are!!! Even Abe liked them! He said "It has a good flavor to it" which is a great review! Thinking these would make a great hors d' oeuvres as well as a side dish.

ZUCCHINI BITES
Makes 12 Bites
4 Bites = 1 Serving = 2 PointsPlus™


1 cup zucchini, grated
1/4 cup fat-free egg substitute
1/4 cup onion, diced
1/4 cup fat-free cheddar cheese, grated
1/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs
salt & pepper to taste
cooking spray

Preheat oven to 400ยบ. Spray mini muffin pan. Set aside.

Grate zucchini into a clean dish towel. Wring all the excess moisture out of the zucchini.


In a medium bowl, combine all the ingredients and mix well.


Fill 12 muffin sections to the top & then push down on the filling with the back of a spoon so it's nice & compacted......that way they won't fall apart when done.










Bake 16 – 18 minutes. Use a plastic knife or spatula around the edges of each bite to remove.


Enjoy......we did.....






with tilapia and fresh steamed asparagus. YUMMMMMM
