The first bite of a delicious vegetable fitter is always the best bite. My friend and chef Laura Arredondo has shared another fabulous recipe...vegetable fritters. She said, "Liz, these fritters are really good. Maybe you read the recipe and make some corrections. Any questions I’m at home. Bye". She's one of the most wonderful people I know. So, I tried the recipe today...and she's right, it's so good. I can say, I've never made fritters before and they are one of the easiest and most delicious recipes to date. It's like holding a little quiche in your hand. I'm a fan of heat, so I dipped my fritter in Frank's Red Hot Sauce and it was such a treat. Chef Laura said, "My grandson loves them". And I'm sure he does. He's the best little helper I've seen. He will be the next generation chef. Enjoy! Veggie Fritters
