Zucchini Fritters

Instructions

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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!

The Summer Cookbook You Never Bought

Preserving summer produce through techniques like freezing, making jam, and roasting in olive oil extends the availability of nutritionally dense peak-season ingredients well beyond their natural season — allowing the cook to access the higher vitamin and antioxidant content of in-season produce throughout the year. Berries frozen at peak ripeness retain most of their antioxidant content for up to a year, research shows, making the simple act of spreading fresh berries on a sheet pan and freezing them one of the most nutritionally efficient food preservation techniques available to any home cook.

Sesame Ginger Edamame Bites

Edamame is one of the most complete plant-based protein sources available—delivering all nine essential amino acids in a single ingredient alongside significant fiber, folate, and isoflavones linked to cardiovascular health. At nearly as much protein per serving as a hard-boiled egg, it’s one of the hardest-working ingredients in any snack rotation.

Smoky Chipotle Black Bean & Farro Bowls

Farro and black beans together form one of the most nutritionally complete plant-based meal combinations available—the beans contribute lysine-rich protein that farro lacks, while the farro provides methionine-rich protein that beans lack, creating a complete amino acid profile equivalent to animal protein when eaten in the same meal. This is whole-food complementary protein done exactly right.
