VEGAN ZUCCHINI FRITTERS

This week, my friend and I challenged each other to be vegan for a week after talking to vegan awareness group who shared facts about factory farming. I felt very inspired by my vegetarian house mate to make delicious vegan zucchini fritters. I actually couldn't believe how easy they were to make and it made so many! Would recommend to a friend.

Serves: 1

Ingredients:

• 4 cups shredded zucchini

• 1 an 1/2 cups corn kernels

• 3/4 cup finely chopped green onions (

• 3 garlic cloves, minced

• 1 and 1/4 cup chickpea flour

• 2 teaspoons cumin

• 1 teaspoon oregano

• 1 teaspoon thyme

• 1 teaspoon salt & pepper

Method:

1. In a large bowl, combine shredded zucchini, corn, green onions, chickpea flour, garlic, cumin, oregano, thyme, salt & pepper. Stir together until well combined. Allow to sit for at least 5 minutes. This step is important because the flour will absorb the moisture from the zucchini and create a batter.

2. Warm a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Grease with preferred cooking oil then scoop out 1/4 cup of the zucchini mixture at a time into the skillet. Cook for about 3-5 minutes on each side, until light golden brown. Serve warm with black beans, salsa, nacho cashew cream and/or avocado then enjoy!
