Zucchini Parmesan Crisps
My mom had given me a very large zucchini. When Bruce saw it, he mentioned how good zucchini crisps are. I figured I would give it a try, since I’d seen recipes for them before and they looked decent.
I only made half the zucchini, since I figured that I would make minestrone with the rest. After Mike tried the zucchini crisps, he said that he’d rather have more of these than the minestrone.
Needless to say, I will be using the other half of the zucchini to make more of these soon.
