Parmesan Veggie Crisps

Yes, yes, yes! So yummy, so healthy for you, so easy to make! These might just replace my obsession with zucchini chips. I made them because I wanted something I could eat with hummus, other than crackers and chips, something that wasn't bad for me. These are just zucchini, carrots, and Parmesan cheese. And you could easily change up the taste by sprinkling them with a little garlic powder or other seasoning. What makes them even better--they're made in the microwave!

Recipe adapted from here.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup grated zucchini
1/2 cup grated carrot
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
seasonings, if desired (garlic powder, rosemary, etc.)

Directions:
Remove the excess moisture from the zucchini and carrots by placing them between a couple of paper towels and squeezing out the extra liquid.

Mix all the ingredients together. Line a microwave-safe plate with waxed paper and spray with cooking spray. Spoon about a tablespoon of the mixture on a plate then flatten with the bottom of the spoon. Repeat with the rest of the mixture. Microwave for 2 to 3 minutes on High. Every microwave is different so start at 2 minutes, then add 30 seconds as needed. 2 minutes worked perfectly for me. Allow to cool about a couple of minutes before serving.
