Zucchini Fritters

Obviously I have been very neglectful at keeping up with my blog. 
My friend Jan gave me her recipe for zucchini fritters that she tells me her whole family loves. Zucchini is my least favorite veggie, but when she mentioned that her grandchildren loved these, I figured I would at least try them. 
I LOVED these and so did Mike.... in fact they were like eating Lay's potato chips.... you can't eat just one!!! This is Jan's recipe as she gave it to me:

Zucchini Fritters

2 small zucchinis, grated and drained
2 cloves of garlic
2 eggs
1/3 c. grated cheese (I use Parmesan and Asiago cheese and add more than 1/3 c.)
1c. flour and 1t. baking powder ( I replace this with 1c. buttermilk pancake mix)
1/2t. or less crushed pepper flakes
some fresh parsley
1t. sugar
salt

Combine ingredients and drop by spoonful in frying pan of oil . We like them brown on the outside and crunchy with a soft center. This is the basic recipe that I go by and
usually add more cheese than it calls for.  Enjoy!
