ZUCCHINI CHIPS

I really have to work hard to get my daily allotment of veggies, so I'm always looking for tasty recipes.  This recipe for zucchini chips caught my attention (probably because it had the word chip in it).  They were easy to make and pretty dog gone tasty!

INGREDIENTS:

2 medium zucchini

¼ cup fresh parmesan

¼ cup bread crumbs

2 Tbsp. olive oil

¼ tsp. salt

¼ tsp. pepper

DIRECTIONS:

Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees.  Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.  

Slice zucchini into very thin slices; no more than ¼ inch thick.   Place the oil in a large plastic bag. Add zucchini and toss to coat.

In another bag, add the dry ingredients and mix by shaking well.   Add in the coated zucchini and shake to cover the zucchini with the mixture.

Lay zucchini on the cookie sheet.  Be sure the zucchini are in a single layer on the pan.  

Bake approximately *20-30 minutes.  

*I baked mine for 25 minutes since they were getting pretty brown.  I found that mine were not completely crispy on the inside, but they were still tasty.  I've since found other recipes that use a very low oven and bake for a longer time (225 degrees for 2 hours).  I may have to try that method to see which style I prefer.

Enjoy!
