Baked Zucchini Chips

Do you love crunchy flavored things but are trying to watch your carb and fat intake? Give these a try! I found this wonderful little recipe on Pinterest and remembered I had a zucchini in my fridge that I needed to cook, so I decided to give this recipe a whirl.  They really met my expectations, of course they don't taste like potato chips, but they are still really good.  


Next time I would leave them in the oven a bit longer to make them even crunchier.  


Ingredients:

• 3 Zucchinis, rinsed
• 1/4 cup Parmesan, shredded
• 1/2 cup Bread Crumbs
• 1 tsp. Garlic Powder
• 1 tsp. Onion Powder
• 1 tsp. Dried Parsley
• 1 tsp. Black Pepper
• 1/2 tsp. Paprika
• 2 Egg Whites

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees

2.  Slice zucchini as thinly and uniform as possible

3.  Place on a paper towel for at least 10 minutes to let excess moisture drain. 

4.  Mix together all the dry ingredients. 

5.  In a bowl whisk the egg whites until frothy.

6.  Place the zucchini in the egg mixture, then coat in the bread crumb mixture.

7.  Place on a baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes.

8.  Pull out the baking sheet and flip over the zucchini chips.

9.  Return to the oven for another 7 minutes.
