Cheese sticks don't have to be junk food. In fact, they can be just a "regular" as the cheese stick by itself.

Instructions
Unwrap your cheese sticks and set aside.
Crack and beat your eggs with a fork a shallow bowl that is wide enough to fit the length of the cheese sticks.
In another bowl (or plate), mix the flour, cheese and seasonings.
Roll the cheese sticks in the egg, then in the batter. Repeat until the cheese sticks are well coated.
Place them in the basket of your air fryer, ensuring they don't touch.
Cook to your air fryer's directions. On mine, the temperature was 370 F. for 6-7 minutes.
Serve with a clean marinara or ketchup (or ranch dressing!)
DON'T HAVE AN AIR FRYER? NOT TO WORRY!
Freeze your cheese sticks before you bread them.
Follow the directions for breading and then place them on a parchment lined dish and freeze again.
When completely frozen, preheat oven to 400 F. The oven must be fully pre heated.
Place the frozen cheese sticks in the hot oven for about 4-5 minutes. They should be golden brown.
Cool and serve.
