Parmesan Zucchini Crisps

These baked organic Parmesan zucchini crisps are crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. I was browsing the Food Network website after I got home from work tonight and saw this baked zucchini crisp recipe from Ellie Krieger. I was so excited that I had all of the ingredients ready to go! They tasted just as delicious as they looked in the picture, so I had to share the recipe with you. You can make them lower in calories by only dipping one side in the bread crumb mixture. Although zucchini is technically a summer squash, we can buy them year round at the grocery store. I cannot believe Fall is here already! The first time I realized summer was coming to an end was during all of the back-to-school sales and commercials, but lately I have been seeing Halloween stuff already set up in the stores! And the PSL (pumpkin spice latte) already back at Starbucks a few weeks ago?! Time is just going by way too fast for me these days.

I am halfway through my pharmacy operations rotation, and bracing myself for what everyone says is the hardest rotation next – general medicine. I have been trying to get myself to study old material for the past few weeks, but every night I haven’t felt like studying. One of these nights I need to just grab a coffee and do it! Lately I have been feeling a little burnt out and needing a break from pharmacy school, but I keep reminding myself that it will be over in 6 months and I can finally be done with school and move on with my life. One of the hardest things is not knowing what lies ahead, but it is also exciting to not know what the future holds for me.
