I love alternatives to everyday yummies—especially when those alternatives are just as tasty, but without all the added ingredients, sugars, syrups, or chemicals! For a great option to sub for chips or salty snacks, these zucchini fries are light and filling, without being heavy and deep-fried.

Zucchini Fries:

What You Need:

• 3-5 zucchini (depending on how many people you’re feeding!)
• assorted spices: garlic powder/salt, oregano, pepper
• 2 tbsp oil: coconut or avocado preferred
• 1-2 cups cheese: Pecorino or Parmesan preferred!
• optional: hot sauce or ranch for serving

What You Do:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Add a wire rack to the top of a baking sheet. Lightly spread or spray your oil across the rack.
3. Mix cheeses and spices together.
4. Slice zucchinis into small wedges, toss the wedges in oil to coat then press them into the cheese/spice mix.
5. Place fries on rack and bake about 10-15 minutes, or until tender. Broil at the end (2-5 min) to crisp the cheese if you desire!
6. Serve hot with hot sauce or ranch to dip!
