Curry & Ginger Zucchini Chips

Curry & Ginger Zucchini ChipsI’ve been on the hunt for healthier snacks lately, and while I love me some kale chips, I wanted to try my hand at making zucchini chips. I like my chips packed with flavor, so I went ahead and coated these in spicy curry and ginger. You can make these in a dehydrator, but since I don’t have one I went ahead and made them in the oven. They turned out so tasty and were gobbled up in minutes.
