ZUCCHINI CRISPS

I recently have developed a small addiction to zucchini. It's a great addition to dishes or all by itself. This is perfect to satisfy that salt and pepper craving from frugalfreebiesanddeals.com. Actually, I think these are way better tasting than potato chips. Crazy, I know. The downside is that they take a long time to make a dehydrator and this recipe only makes one serving since the zucchini shrink down a great deal when dehydrated. It is very easy though. I started making several batches at a time to have a few on hand :) 

Ingredients

  • 1 lb (about 4 cups) thin sliced Zucchini
  • ¼ tsp salt (I used sea salt)
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp olive oil or coconut oil (this can be omitted or you can use olive oil spray)
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  • Cut zucchini into thin slices, about 1/16-1/8 inch slices. If you don't want them as crispy, you can make the slices thicker. A slicer is so much easier but not required.
  • In a medium bowl whisk salt, pepper, olive oil (if used), and vinegar (the dressing)
  • Add sliced zucchini
  • Toss with the “dressing” to coat.
  • Arrange slices on dehydrator trays
  • Dehydrate at 135 degrees for 5-6 hours or until crispy
