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!

Herb-Roasted Chicken with Vegetables

You can poach chicken to enhance its moisture and flavor while keeping the fat content low. To do this, place the chicken in a pot or skillet with a flavorful cooking liquid such as broth, wine, or coconut milk.

Since chicken breast is a lean cut, adding some fat can help keep it tender and juicy. Options like mayonnaise, butter, or oil work well for this purpose.

Pomegranate Martini

While this is a cocktail, pomegranate juice offers significant health benefits. It’s rich in antioxidants and may support heart health. Fresh lime adds vitamin C and brightens flavors naturally. Pomegranate arils provide fiber and additional antioxidants. To make healthier, reduce simple syrup or use a natural sweetener. For a mocktail version, replace vodka with sparkling water and skip Cointreau. The fresh herbs add beneficial compounds without calories. Remember to enjoy alcoholic beverages in moderation and stay hydrated. Consider alternating with water between cocktails.
