my culinary project for this morning was to make zucchini chips. Sounds so healthy I am sure you are all impressed.

if you don't have a dehydrator, it is supposed to be very easy to make those in a 200F oven - nothing to it, spray the thin slices with oil, season, bake for 2 hours, but checking after 90 minutes because thin slices burn easily

after baby-sitting the tray of zucchini slices for 2 hours and 40 minutes, I was left with a TINY LITTLE batch of zucchini chips, that are not even that good. Beloved husband tried some and his comment was "not too chip-y, are they?"

this recipe goes into the NEVER AGAIN FOLDER.

heat my oven for almost 3 hours for this.

 
Sally, I looked around the web a little and found these photos that looked really great to me

maybe this might give you a tip. From what I read, the key is to get them really thin, plus some added salt, let them sit for a bit, to drain the water. Most said to get as much moisture out of the chips before cooking, as you can. Hope this helps some. They sure look yummy.

They do look good, and....

... she seems to perfect her recipes before posting

I will need some time to recover from today's fiasco before I do zucch chips again, but I'm saving her recipe

thank you! smileys/wink.gif

 
Is it just me or do those chips look like they've got cheese melted on top? Because...that

would pretty much do it for me, although it would probably ix-nay that whole "healthy" aspect.

 
She mentions in the first part of her write-up about these that all they have is olive oil and salt.

Then in the comments section, the fact that the chips are healthy were a plus for many. I think that is the olive oil which browned in the middle of the chip.
