I ended up with a bunch of zucchini and I didn't want it to go bad! So I decided to make some cheesy zucchini bites in a muffin tin! They were great fresh out of the oven and also as a quick snack.

I started by shredding the zucchini.

I then used a cheese cloth (this is actually a muslin baby cloth! but it worked the same) to squeeze out all the water. Just wring out the cloth to get as much moister out as possible.

I added 1 egg, chopped onion, and bread crumbs.

I also added parmesan cheese, salt, pepper and garlic powder.

Mix it all together.

I then made a ball with my hands and stuffed into a greased muffin tin.

I then added some mozzarella cheese to the middle and pushed it down and covered with more of the zucchini. You could use mini muffin trays for a great appetizer!
