Better than fries

Posted on July 21, 2025
“Better Than Fries” could go in a few fun directions—are you referring to a recipe or snack idea that’s even more addictive than fries? Or maybe you’re looking for healthy alternatives or even a catchy name for a dish or brand?

Let me give you a few takes, and you can tell me which fits what you’re going for:


🔥 1. “Better Than Fries” – Baked Parmesan Zucchini Sticks

A healthier but wildly addictive alternative to fries!

Ingredients:

  • 2 medium zucchini, cut into sticks

  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

  • 1/2 tsp paprika

  • Salt & pepper to taste

  • Olive oil spray

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment.

  2. Toss zucchini sticks in cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

  3. Spread on sheet, spray with olive oil.

  4. Bake for 20–25 mins, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp.


😍 2. “Better Than Fries” – Crispy Chickpeas

Crunchy, savory, and packed with protein.

Toss canned chickpeas (drained, rinsed, and dried) with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and salt. Roast at 400°F (200°C) for 30–40 minutes, shaking every 10 minutes.


🍠 3. Sweet Potato Wedges with Spicy Yogurt Dip

A natural step up from fries—with more flavor and fiber.


💡 4. “Better Than Fries” – A Fun Brand or Concept

If you’re naming a dish, food truck item, or healthy snack business, Better Than Fries is catchy and sets high expectations in a fun way. You could apply it to:

  • Loaded veggie tots

  • Gourmet roasted root chips

  • Plantain fries with unique sauces


Let me know if you want one of these recipes in full, or if you’re thinking about something else entirely (like a social media name, product line, or specific dish)!
