I suck at making those zoodles, and I have zucchini bread packed into my freezer like I plan to one day use zucchini bread bricks to fend off zombies in the apocalypse my older son swears is coming.  And yes, I did take away his Walking Dead watching privileges, btw.  

But I still have zucchini, so on Amazon Prime day, I went ahead and bought a food dehydrator and the first thing I made?  Zucchini chips!  And they were terrific!

Here's how I did it:

First, I sliced the zucchini on a mandolin.  Then, I tossed them with olive oil, salt and pepper.  Threw them into the dehydrator so that they were touching, turned the thing to 140 degrees for 8 hours and voila!  Delicious chips!  Like potato chips, only green and actually good for you!

If you like, you can make them in the oven as well. Set the temp to 200 degrees and cook for two hours or so until they're crispy.
