Homemade Zucchini Fry Recipe

These taste so good and are such a great alternative to french fries!

Ingredients:

Italian Style Panko Bread Crumbs

2 eggs

3 zucchinis

Preheat your oven to 425 degrees and line a cookie sheet with foil.

First cut the ends of the zucchini off and cut it in half long ways. Stand half up and cut them in half again the same direction as the first cut. Lay them flat and cut them into strips.

Whisk together the 2 eggs in a shallow dish. Dip the zucchini in the egg then roll it in the bread crumbs. Place them on the cookie sheet and bake them for 10-12 minutes pull them out of the oven and flip them. Then bake them for another 10-12 minutes or until the bread crumbs are browned.

1/2 cup baking stevia or 1 cup of sweetener that measures like sugar

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

1 1/2 cup strawberries, diced and patted dry

How to Make Red, White, & Blue Fruit Kabobs

These fruit kabobs are such a pretty food to make for the 4th of July. You could have the kids make them to let them feel involved in the cooking process for a party. 

Ingredients:

mini star marshmallows

raspberries

blueberries

strawberries- cut in halves or quartered

wooden skewers

Take the ingredients and layer them onto each skewer. I would start each of them with at least 1 blueberry the other fruits slide of the skewers otherwise. I also wouldn't start with a marshmallow because when you slide it down the skewer it rips apart if there isnt any berry juice to help slide it along.

How To Make Homemade Apple Chips

Apple chips are so good but they are kind of on the expensive side. The homemade ones tastes just as good and even better then the store bought ones. You can use whatever kind of apples you like!

Ingredients:

1 large apple

2tbsp light brown sugar

1tbsp cinnamon

Preheat the oven to 225 degrees and line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.

Thinly slice the apple carefully. If you have a mandolin use that but I'm just using a knife since I dont own one.

Mix the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Dip the apple slices in the cinnamon mix just to lightly coat the chips.

Bake for 1 hour. Take out and flip them over. Then bake for another hour.
