You asked for it! So here it is. My favourite savoury snack… Zucchini Slice. I make a large one at the start of the week so my sister and I can snack on it at work.
What I love about this one is it doesn’t have any bacon or ‘cheese’. Instead, I have added in cottage cheese to make it a little lighter and left out the bacon in place for more veggies – and boy does it have a lot of veggies!!
That does not mean to say bacon and cheese don’t have a place in a healthy diet, I just prefer to leave bacon to have with eggs on the weekend – and well cheese with a wine…
