Getting enough green vegetables in my diet can be a struggle. When I am not in the mood for salad, these oven-roasted zucchini fries are one of my top picks. They bring a bit of crisp and saltiness to the table and I love how good they taste when dipped in ranch dressing. Pair these with a juicy steak or a chicken entree and enjoy!
Ingredients:
2 medium zucchini
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
Mrs. Dash’s table blend or seasonings of choice
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy clean-up.
Don’t let the zucchini see the hunger in your eyes.
Cut the ends off of the zucchini.
Then, cut the zucchini in half lengthwise.
Cut in half again the same way.
Keep cutting until the zucchini pieces are skinny enough to look like french fries.
Spread evenly over foil lined pan.
Drizzle with olive oil, seasonings, and parmesan cheese.
Place in oven and bake for 20 minutes or until crispy, flipping them halfway through.
Take out of oven, let cool for a few minutes, and serve!
Here they are modeling next to my grilled ribeye.
