I am not normally a baked food kind of girl but this Baked Mozzarella Sticks Recipe was so yummy! I have been eating so much junk this past week, lots of fried foods.The kiddos and hubby were asking for Mozzarella Sticks. I will normally buy them from the frozen section at GFS and fry them up a batch but my freezer was fresh out of stock, ha ha. I was not about to take a trip out in the cold yucky weather just to grab Mozzarella Sticks.
Baked Mozzarella Sticks Recipe
I recalled having some Mozzarella String Cheese sticks in the fridge for the kiddos lunchboxes. I figured it couldn’t be to difficult to whip up a batch of my own. This time around though I decided to make a Baked Mozzarella Sticks Recipe. So quick, simple and tastier than they actually looked. My hubby who is a fried food junky (hence the 7 or 8 heat attacks, lol) really liked them. I received compliments on how tasty they were all evening long.

The seasoned coating on the mozzarella had great flavor. I think the flavoring was much better than the Mozzarella sticks we purchase to make at home.
