Zucchini Parmesan Crisps

If you struggle to get your kids to eat their veggies, these are a must try!  They are crisp and salty and so flavorful...they will never know they are getting something that's good for them.  

It is nearly impossible to stop eating these.  This recipe SHOULD serve 4, unless you realize they are so good that you and your husband just gooble them up right off the sheet tray after they come out of the oven!  Seriously, I didn't even get to serve them.  

Next time you are looking for a quick and easy veggie side dish, try these!  And report back - I would love to hear if your kiddos enjoyed them!

Serves 4

Zucchini Parmesan Crisps

2 medium-size zucchinis

1/4 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese

1/4 whole wheat italian seasoned bread crumbs

1 tablespoon olive oil

sea salt and ground pepper

Preheat oven to 400 degrees and spray 2 baking sheets with non-stick cooking spray.  Slice the zucchini into 1/4-inch rounds and in a medium bowl, toss with the the olive oil.  

In a wide bowl, combine the parmesan, bread crumbs and salt and pepper to taste.  Dip the zucchini rounds into the mixture, coating both sides, pressing to stick.  Arrange evenly on the baking sheets.  

Sprinkle the remaining cheese mixture evenly over the zucchini.  Bake for about 25 minutes or until golden brown.
