Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Zucchini: Trim the ends of the zucchini. Using a mandoline on the thinnest setting, carefully slice the zucchini into 1/8-inch thin rounds. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Remove Excess Moisture: Arrange the zucchini slices in a single layer on a plate lined with paper towels. Cover with more paper towels and gently press down to absorb excess moisture. This step is crucial for achieving crispy chips. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Season and Crisp: Place the zucchini slices on a cutting board. Lightly mist one side with cooking spray. Sprinkle generously with taco seasoning. Flip the slices and lightly mist the other side with cooking spray as well. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Microwave the Zucchini: Arrange the seasoned zucchini slices, seasoned-side up, on a microwave-safe plate, ensuring they don't overlap. Microwave on high power for 2 minutes and 30 seconds. Carefully flip the slices and microwave for an additional 30 seconds, or until slightly crisp. Repeat with any remaining zucchini. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Assemble the Nachos: Divide the crisped zucchini chips between 2 microwave-safe plates. Sprinkle evenly with black olives, red onion, jalapeno peppers, and shredded Cheddar cheese. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Melt the Cheese: Microwave the plates on high power until the cheese is melted and bubbly, approximately 30 seconds, keeping a close eye to prevent burning. (1 minute)

07

Step

Serve Immediately: Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy these Zucchini Chip Nachos as a light and flavorful appetizer!

For extra crispy zucchini chips, consider baking them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Feel free to customize the toppings! Try adding cooked ground beef or shredded chicken for a heartier nacho experience. Other great additions include diced tomatoes, sour cream, or guacamole.
Adjust the amount of taco seasoning to your liking. For a spicier kick, use a hot taco seasoning mix.
If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a very sharp knife, but be sure to slice the zucchini as thinly and evenly as possible.
