Zuchinni and Yellow Squash Fritters!
Happy Monday Everyone,
Last Friday while standing in my kitchen, pondering what I wanted for lunch, I remembered all these great blog post I had been seeing recently about Zucchini Fritters. So, I rushed to the veggie drawer in refrigerator, and what did I find, but one lonely Zucchini and one yellow squash......so, I did what my Mom always taught me......work with what you have!
I shredded both the zucchini and yellow squash......added about a teaspoon of salt and tossed that into mixture and let them sit for about 30 minutes. From what I had read, this helps get all the water out of the squash.......and after that, I placed them in paper towels and squeezed water out. I then placed this into a big bowl. I added....one egg.....bread crumbs....corn......a orange bell pepper......chopped onions.....cracked black pepper.....garlic....parsley and to give it an extra kick.....added some feta cheese and mixed well. They turned out fabulous!
As you can tell, I really don't follow a set recipe. My Mom and both grandmothers are and were awesome cooks, and they had the ability to "just know" what it needed, and I guess I follow that rule also. But, they were delicious and I shared them with my neighbor and she loved them too!
Enjoy and Blessings,
Deborah

Oh leave out the onion and I would love to eat one or two or more! these look and sound delish. I have the same issue, just cook it, adding as I taste and sometimes I can't make it the same way twice! Thanks for sharing with us Deborah!
