Crunchy Zuke Chips
Yields 1
One of our joyful rituals during the high season thrumping is roasting veg for pasta sauce, lasagnas, and casseroles, for now and to put by. We like to rescue two zucchinis fresh from the field for this prep. It’s a great right-now snack after an afternoon of wrangling and roasting.
