I am slightly obsessed with Carls Jr. Zucchini fries although, I don’t go out of my way to get them ever. And the first time I had them was when I had zucchini fries and fried artichokes in a hamburger place in SF bay area. I need to try making these I bet they are yummy! Pinned for later. Thanks for the recipe can’t wait to try it.
