Recipe: Zucchini Fritters
Genny’s Zucchini fritters is functionally similar to her Chicken Zucchini Poppers and is adapted from the recipe she found at the food network.
This is one of her favorite “comfort foods” she makes now that she is serious about getting and staying healthy.
I’d rather just have a big bowl of chicken and rice, but our palettes disagree.
My wife has been working hard at eating healthy and has a bunch of these recipes. I would like her to share more of them, but when her self image meets the trolls she gets upset.
