Zucchini Fritters

Healthy Fact of the Day

Zucchini is an excellent source of vitamin C, which supports a healthy immune system and aids in collagen production for glowing skin.

Ingredients

 

  • 2 medium zucchinis, grated
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Vegetable oil for frying

 

Instructions

  1. Squeeze out excess moisture from the grated zucchini using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth.

  2. In a large bowl, combine the grated zucchini, egg, flour, parmesan cheese, garlic, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until fully combined.

  3. Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add enough vegetable oil to coat the bottom of the pan.

  4. Scoop out a heaping tablespoon of the zucchini mixture and gently drop it into the hot oil. Flatten slightly with a spatula.

  5. Fry the fritters for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.

  6. Transfer the cooked fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

  7. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the pan as needed.

  8. Serve hot with a dollop of yogurt or sour cream, if desired.

Enjoy these crispy and delicious zucchini fritters as a tasty and nutritious addition to your meal!

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

Krispy Kreme Is Dropping a Pokémon Doughnut Collection Monday — And There Are Six of Them

With six doughnuts in the Pokémon collection, the Krispy Kreme Dozen is designed for sharing — and sharing is genuinely the healthiest way to enjoy a collab lineup like this one. Splitting the dozen across a group of six means one character doughnut each, which is a perfectly reasonable treat. The Charmander doughnut’s filled format means it’s more substantial than the glazed varieties — a single Charmander alongside a coffee is a satisfying treat that doesn’t require working through more than one doughnut to feel the full experience. And the free Original Glazed on August 22 is one of the lower-calorie Krispy Kreme options at around 190 calories — a smart choice for the freebie day.

The Olive Oil Harvest: Why the Freshest Bottle on the Shelf Is Always the Best One

Extra virgin olive oil’s health benefits are substantially dependent on its polyphenol content — specifically the compounds oleocanthal, oleuropein, and hydroxytyrosol that are responsible for its anti-inflammatory and cardiovascular-protective effects. Research has found that the polyphenol content of olive oil decreases by approximately forty percent in the first year after pressing and continues to decline thereafter, meaning that fresh, high-polyphenol extra virgin olive oil provides substantially greater health benefits than aged or degraded oil of equivalent volume. The PREDIMED study — the landmark clinical trial demonstrating the cardiovascular benefits of the Mediterranean diet — used high-polyphenol extra virgin olive oil as the primary fat, and the specific health benefits observed in the study may not be replicable with the aged, low-polyphenol olive oil that constitutes most of the commercial supply.

Taco Hashbrown Casserole

Black beans are one of the most nutritious additions to any ground beef dish—providing plant-based protein, fiber, iron, and folate while stretching the beef further and reducing the saturated fat per serving. Using frozen hashbrowns keeps the prep effortless, and the salsa base means you’re getting vegetables, antioxidants, and flavor in every layer without any extra effort.
