Zucchini Fritters
I love zucchini, especially when they are fresh from the garden. They are super easy to grow and simple to prepare.
Zucchini fritters is a great lunch dish or perfect for meat free Monday dinners. I am always looking for ways to get more vegetables into my kids and making fritters into mini bite sizes that they can eat in their fingers works a treat. My son who does not eat ‘green food’ devours these.
I am going to make small ones and pop in the lunch boxes. Fingers crossed they don’t come back!
