Simple and Easy Zucchini Crisps
I absolutely love, love this recipe of Zucchini crisps. They have been one of my favorite snacks lately.
These simple crisps are made of one of my favorite vegetables: zucchini! Both zucchini and squash are rated very high up in my unofficial book of favorite veggies. They are super easy to cook and can make so much out of so little: noodles, crisps, pizza bites, fritters, salads, rolls, spreads, soups, and even hummus!
I love how they are healthy, crispy and very easy to make. Did you know that zucchini is one of the very low-calorie vegetable, just 17 calories in 100 grams? These zucchini crisps are the perfect addition to summer dishes. They are dipped in olive oil, which benefits skin cancer and also is perfect with this zucchini because it fills you right up.
Did you know black pepper, although in a small amount, has health benefits too? Black pepper is good for digestive function because consuming black pepper allows hydrochloric acid levels to rise in the stomach.
Here’s what you’ll need to make these delicious crisps:
- zucchini
- extra virgin olive oil
- salt
- garlic powder
- ground black pepper
- bread crumbs
