"Despite sounding weird, these are actually very tasty! They can be used as a side dish, or as a main meal with a salad and fresh bread. This makes approx 16 small fritters at 1/2 point each if you are following a weight watchers plan. Cooking time will depend on size of pan used. I have put the points for each ingredient beside it in brackets."

These were a great way to eat up the broccoli! I omitted the oil and added 2 more Tbsp. milk. I think next time I will add in some powdered ranch mix and sprinkle a bit of shredded cheddar on top. De-lish!
