Everyone I've cooked this for has asked for the recipe. It is one of our absolute favorite family sides and one of my favorite finds on food.com, as well. When I haven't had these veggies on hand, I've used carrots or squash instead. It is always a winner! -
I saw this featured on the homepage today and just had to try it. It was a hit with my family. The only thing differently I did was added shredded carrots. Thanks for sharing your recipe. -
thanks for posting ...we enjoyed this very much... -
Wow, these were delicious! I wanted to try something new for a side dish (I got tired of the old stand-bys) and came across this recipe. I liked the addition of zucchini, so I decided to try it. I didn't make the world's most beautiful fritters, but they were darned tasty. My husband loved them, and they were all my 15-month old twins wanted to eat at dinner. The only change I made was I grated the onion instead of dicing it (so the little ones didn't chomp down on a big piece of onion) and I added a sprinkle of Italian seasoned breadcrumbs to the flour mixture... because I, for some reason, thought I was supposed to. No, it isn't anywhere in the ingredient list or the instructions. Must have read to do that in a different recipe. -

Great tasting fritters & easy to prepare! I used lemon pepper instead of salt & papper & the cheese was a low-fat, mild cheddar! Will be making this again, as it's definitely something my son & daughterin-law would like! Thanks for sharing! [Made & reviewed for one of my adopted chefs in this Spring's PAC]

Well..about me! I'm married, I have 2 kids (both boys), and I live in Australia.
I have loved cooking for as long as I can remember, and have become completely addicted to browsing through Zaar looking for new recipes!
I have a small animal shelter for rabbits and guinea pigs, and spend most of my time looking after kids or critters!.
My favourite cookbooks are The Essential Pasta Cookbook, The Central Cookery Book, Flo Bjielkie-Peterson's Country Cookbook, and Greek Cooking (I bought that one in Greece, and it's FANTASTIC). At the minute, we are getting ready to move, which is forcing me to sort through my recipe cabinet. I have been trying out all those recipes that are scribbled on pieces of paper, or torn from magazines, so I can decide ifthey are keepers or not. So far I've found a lot of keepers, and will work at posting them on here.
I'm passionate about a lot of things, mainly my kids, animals, and cooking.
I won't even start on my peeves, we'll be here all night! lol
