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

THE ONLY THING DIFFERENT I DID WAS ADD A HALF A PACKET OF LIPTON ONION MUSHROOM SOUP MIX, BECAUSE THAT'S ALL I HAD. HOPING IT WOULD TURN OUT GOOD, AS I MADE THE WHOLE BATCH. WELL IT WAS! MY KIDS AND THEIR FRIENDS LOVED IT. THEY DEMANDED I MAKE MORE. NEXT TIME I WILL DOUBLE THE BATCH AND TRY THE RANCH. THEY COULDN'T BELIEVE IT WAS MADE OUT OF ZUCCHINI!

This is a great way to use up our over-abundant supply of zucchini. I did find the batter to be a little runny and was wondering what I could do to make it a little thicker but still cook up light and fluffy. Thanks for posting this recipe.

I had tons of zucchini from the garden so I was looking for something to make. These were delicious, and I'm really not a great cook, but these were very simple to make. They were a big hit!

I too had many zucchini and summer squash. I made them with the yellow summer squash. Very good. Made 2nd batch using vidalia onion dressing instead of the milk and then used 1/2 packet of italian salad dressing mix and they were awesome!! Dipped them into the vidalia dressing!!! Great recipe

We had 9 zucchinis out of the garden yesterday so I was browsing to find different things to make with them. I tried this recipe and my picky non-vegetable eating teens devoured them. Only after they were done did I tell them it was zucchini! This recipe gets high praise from them as well as my husband and I! Thanks for sharing!
