Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat with nonstick spray.

Step 2

Place grated zucchini in a colander over the sink. Add salt and gently toss to combine; let sit for 10 minutes. Using a clean dish towel or cheese cloth, drain zucchini completely, removing as much water as possible.

Step 3

Transfer zucchini to a large bowl. Stir in carrots, Panko, eggs, cheeses, basil, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder and cajun seasoning; season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Step 4

Form zucchini into tots and place onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5

Place into oven and bake until golden brown and crisp, about 16-18 minutes, flipping during the last 10 minutes of cooking time.

Step 6

Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.
