Easy Zucchini Fries

Jump to recipe

I love french fries – all kinds of them. Regular, shoestring, thick-cut, wedges – you name them, I love them. You may or may not agree with me but give me fries dipped in ketchup any day. Before I took an unplanned blog hiatus, I had a couple of recipes like zucchini fries, in my arsenal, ready to share. Obviously, that didn’t happen so here we are today.

I’m not a person who believes cauliflower tastes ‘just like mashed potatoes’ so I’m not going to try to convince you that these zucchini fries are just like ‘regular’ french fries – they are not. However, these are pretty delicious especially if you’re looking for an alternative for your favorite greasy french fry craving. Oh, and I did I mention these are baked?

Why zucchini fries?

To be honest, I don’t know. Why not, I guess? I like zucchini (especially roasted) but I was feeling like I wanted to try something new and so here we are. You can season these however you want; think of the zucchini as a blank slate for you to do whatever your heart desires.

I’d imagine you could also try this with squash. Are squash fries a thing? Even though these aren’t “regular” fries, I still needed a dipping sauce. While I didn’t try them with ketchup (would that be weird?), I did serve these with a marinara sauce. It’s sort of like ketchup but a little more sophisticated, right? You can try these zucchini fries with any dipping sauce you fancy. I’m not big on ranch dressing but I would think these would be good with ranch or maybe even some sort of honey mustard. Try it and let me know what you think.

Anyway, here’s your guide to making some yummy and easy zucchini fries; they make a wonderful side dish or appetizer.
