Lastest kitchen creation

One of my favorite snacks is cheese sticks. I eat them so often that I thought I should learn how to make them myself.  Most of the recipes I come across use string cheese but I only had my shredded mozzarella cheese so I did my own version that way. I got my recipe inspiration from Skinny Taste.  Since I didn't have the cheese sticks I just mold the cheese into sticks and froze them like the recipe. I also only used panko crumbs, but the end result was delicious! :) 

Ingredients: 

• 2 cups of shredded or 1/2 in. thick all around sliced mozzarella or cheese of choice
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 2 tbsp flour
• 5 tbsp Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
• 5 tbsp panko crumbs
• 2 tsp parmesan cheese
• 1 tbsp dried parsley

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees and line a pan with parchment paper.

First start out by molding the cheese into the shape of what would have been the shape of string cheese. You can also just cut your cheese into the shape. Then you will place them into the freezer until frozen.

Now place three bowl out to place an egg in one, flour in another and remaining ingredients in the last.

Take out your cheese and start the conga line. Coat with flour first, shake shake shake the access off, coat with the egg and then crumb mixture. Repeat until all cheese is coated.

Place on a parchment lined pan and bake for 4-5 minutes on one side, flip and do 4-5 more minutes. Make sure they don't start to melt.

Serve with favorite sauce.
