Broccoli Fritters with Chipotle Yogurt Posted: 12 May 2021 02:22 AM PDT “This actually makes eating broccoli enjoyable,” said my husband after finishing the last of the Broccoli Fritters with Chipotle Yogurt I made last week for lunch.  I’ve been desperate for a way to get my family to eat greens, so this recipe from my friend Jessica’s latest cookbook,  Everyday Dinners could not have come at a better time! Broccoli is bound together with cheese, eggs, and flour and served with a chipotle yogurt dip. I’ll definitely be adding this to my meal preps because they’re so delicious for breakfast/lunch.  Ingredients involved are ingredients I usually have!  First, we cook the broccoli. Then we chop the broccoli. We split it into two groups. One finely chopped and one regular chopped. TALK ABOUT CHOP THERAPY. You could mash with a fork or use a potato masher, but why dirty up another tool? The batter consists of eggs, cheese, flour, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Broccoli makes its introduction. Ok, let’s fire up the skillet and heat some oil. 1/2 cup ice cream scooper does the trick. While the fritters are cooking, let’s make the Chipotle yogurt! Mix it all up. Keep frying. I grew up with zucchini fritters as a kid…and now I feel robbed.  BECAUSE WOW THESE ARE GOOD and I love broccoli and cheese together.  Dip! A perfect lunch for two.  Definitely going in the meal prep arsenal. Thanks, Jess! I LOVE YOUR NEW BOOK!!!! — Everyday Dinners!!
