Zucchini Oven

These are really good and have the added bonus of very little fat! We eat these often during the summer, sometimes in place of oven "fries" made with potatoes. You can add some cayenne pepper for a kick if you want. Give them a try and tell me what you think! EDIT!: Given some reviewers advice, I tried them again. 45 minutes was way too long for us, we just ended up with a crispy shell and no zucchini left. But 30 minutes was very good, keeping the taste of the zucchini, with one turn. The problem with the "flouriness" not cooking away, I've found that if you spray them VERY well with cooking spray it resolves this problem for me. I'm editing the recipe to reflect this.

I tried these fries and they were really good! I'm not usually a fan of zucchini, but these fries were so crispy and flavorful. I will definitely be making them again.

These fries were absolutely delicious! I made them for dinner last night and my whole family loved them. They were so crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I will definitely be making these again.
