Ingredients

  • Sliced a generous zucchini and ready your cooking spray. Embrace the flavors with a packet of taco seasoning mix. Enhance with sliced black olives, chopped red onion, and pickled jalapeno pepper slices. Lastly, sprinkle a cup of shredded Cheddar cheese for a delightful touch.

Step 1

Prepare the zucchini by trimming the ends and slicing it thinly using a mandoline at the thinnest setting, aiming for slices that are about 1/8-inch thick. Lay the zucchini slices on a plate lined with paper towels, cover them with more paper towels, and gently press down to remove any excess moisture.

Step 2

Next, transfer the zucchini slices to a cutting board and give them a light mist of cooking spray. Sprinkle taco seasoning over the slices, then mist the other side with cooking spray as well. Arrange the seasoned slices on a microwave-safe plate without overlapping. Microwave on high for 2 minutes and 30 seconds. Afterward, carefully flip the slices over and microwave for an additional 30 seconds. Repeat this process with the remaining zucchini slices.

Step 3

Now, divide the zucchini chips between two microwave-safe plates. Top them with black olives, red onion, jalapeno peppers, and a generous amount of Cheddar cheese. Microwave on high until the cheese is perfectly melted, which should take around 30 seconds. Enjoy your deliciously cheesy zucchini nachos!

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your zucchinis fresh by storing them in a cool, dark place. Use them within a few days of purchase to ensure maximum crispiness in your nacho chips.
  2. 2. To prevent your zucchinis from getting soggy, slice them thinly and evenly. This will ensure that they cook evenly and become perfectly crispy.
