Zucchini Chips With Gorgonzola Cheese Recipe

You don't need to get fancy with snacking, but bonus points if you do! Instead of putting out yet another bag of potato chips, impress your fellow party people with homemade zucchini chips fried to golden-brown perfection and topped with that addictive dairy mistress that is gorgonzola cheese. She makes us blue, and that ain't bad.

Anthony Scotto, owner of NYC Italian fine dining haven Fresco by Scotto offered us this easy solution to "just another snack syndrome." Leave it to an Italian chef to pull us out of a munchies rut.
