Healthy snack recipes - let's share 'em!

I'm currently loving baked zucchini!

I take 3 medium zucchini's and thinly slice them so that they make circles (I like to leave the skin on, but wash them thoroughly). I then dip them in a lightly beaten egg and dredge them in Italian-style breadcrumbs. Bake at 425 for 25 minutes. Delish!

What do you do that's easy and healthy?
