If you are looking for a healthy snack, try these baked zucchini Parmesan chips! So easy to make and will satisfy your need for a crunch!

We tend to get in a rut in the way that we serve our vegetables or we get so caught up in making sure that they are prepared in he healthiest way possible that we often forget to let ourselves indulge a little bit! This recipe for zucchini parmesan crisps can give you the variety that you need while still staying on the healthy side.

The best part about these is that they can be an impressive side dish for your holiday dinner (or any dinner) or they would even make a great appetizer recipe - just set them out on a platter with a little marinara sauce for dipping!

One of the keys to getting the coating to stick to the chips is to pat the zucchini slices dry with a paper towel (there should be some natural condensation that forms once you slice them, especially if they are cold when you slice them).

You are going to want to serve these fresh out of the oven. They won't be horrible once they are cooled down but, like most foods that have any breading on them, they taste best when they are piping hot!
