Crispy Baked Zucchini and Bell Pepper Chips

Zucchini and bell pepper chips are a delicious and healthy snack or side dish. They're easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. Here's a simple recipe for crispy baked zucchini and bell pepper chips that you can try.

I first came up with this recipe when I was looking for a way to use up some leftover zucchini and bell peppers. I had tried frying them before, but I wasn't happy with the results. The chips were too greasy and didn't have much flavor. So, I decided to try baking them instead. The results were much better! The chips were crispy and golden brown, and they had a delicious flavor from the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Since then, I've been making these chips all the time. They're a great way to use up leftover vegetables, and they're a healthy and delicious snack or side dish. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

Ingredients

• 1 medium zucchini, sliced into thin rounds
• 1 medium bell pepper, sliced into thin rounds
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. In a large bowl, combine the zucchini and bell pepper slices, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
4. Toss to coat.
5. Spread the vegetable slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
6. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chips are crispy and golden brown.

Why It Works

• Baking the chips at a high temperature (400 degrees F) helps to create crispy edges while keeping the centers tender.
• Using parchment paper to line the baking sheet prevents the chips from sticking and makes cleanup a breeze.
• The combination of garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper adds a delicious savory flavor to the chips.
