    When I went low-carb, I missed the crunch of fries, but these air fryer zucchini fries have saved me! I threw a bag into the air fryer, and they came out crispy and golden brown – just like the real thing. They’ve become a favorite at our house, especially when I’m craving a quick snack or a side dish.
