Zucchini Fritters Recipe

Meet the Cook: One day, I wanted to serve zucchini as a side dish - but I didn't have the time to slice and deep-fry it. So I came up with these fritters instead! They go especially well with barbecued ribs or pork chops and corn on the cob. I'm an avid recipe clipper. I've also assisted at our church's Wednesday night suppers, cooking for as many as 125 people. That was good "training" - my husband and I have three children...and they're now 20, 19 and 18! -Mary Dixson, Catlin, Illinois

I didn't have any ranch style dip so I use the Italian one instead and it was very yummy!

I have lots of zucchini from my garden so am always looking for zucchini recipes, I made this and it turned out pretty good, now, when I make it, I substitute the ranch dressing and use 1/2 pack of onion soup mix instead, and it is really good.

I have been making similar fritters for a long time. I squeeze the liquid from the shredded zucchini before adding the other ingredients

For the last two months, I have been cooking, baking, stir frying, grilling zucchini in hopes of not burning out my husband with our over abundance of zucchini. This recipe was a quick favorite! I even cooked it up for my mother who HATES squash! And she loved it! I will be cooking this summer after summer!!
