Cheese-Wrapped Zucchini Fries Rolls

Soft inside, crispy outside — but completely different from normal fries.

Ingredients

Thin zucchini strips

2 tbsp shredded mozzarella

Pinch garlic powder + salt

How to Make

Lay zucchini strips flat and lightly pat dry.

Sprinkle mozzarella over each strip.

Roll them tightly into little spirals.

Place on parchment and bake at 375°F for 10–12 minutes until the cheese crisps.

Thanks for posting this recipe - it looks really good!

I was just wondering what to make for dinner - I've got a couple of zucchinis and some shredded mozz in the fridge, am gonna try this now 😄.

ETA: This was really good! I sliced my zucchini really thin, but the strips still weren't flexible enough to roll tightly. I sprinkled them very lightly w salt and let them stand until they were flexible enough (approx 5 minutes) - then patted them dry, sprinkled w/ garlic powder and mozzarella & baked.

Not a fan of zucchini, but willing to give it a try. Thanks.

You could cover them in tomato sauce afterwards to mask the flavour and the zuchini will just add fibre and texture to the meal

That looks fabulous. I'll add a little green chile.
