Our take on the Greek zucchini fritters known as kolokithokeftedes are lighter than the original. A lemony tomato salad and garlicky yogurt turn them into a full meal.

Shine from the Inside Out
Are you constantly craving sweets? This hunger is often your body compensating for low blood sugar! When you’re “hangry” and low on energy, it’s natural to turn to simple sugars since the body digests them so quickly. Try focusing on eating regularly throughout the day, balancing every meal and snack with protein, fat, and fiber to stabilize your blood sugar. This will allow you to enjoy a sweet treat in a state of bliss rather than a foggy hunger.
Ingredient IQ
Black-eyed peas are so named because of their unique black speck, but they also happen to be great for eye health, thanks to their high levels of beta-carotene, the same compound that makes carrots and sweet potatoes so good for your eyes.

Wash produce before use

1

Make the fritter batter; cook the fritters

  • Using the large holes of a box grater, coarsely grate the zucchini.
Crack the eggs into a large bowl. Using a fork or whisk, lightly beat until just blended. Stir in the zucchini and feta and season generously with salt and pepper. Add the fritter blend and stir until just combined.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons butter (from your pantry) or oil until hot but not smoking. Working in batches, spoon in enough batter to form 3- to 4-inch fritters and cook, turning once, until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Add more butter or oil between batches if needed.
While the fritters cook, prepare the tomato salad and garlic yogurt.

2

Make the tomato salad; finish the garlic yogurt

  • Cut the tomatoes in half.
  • Rinse the black-eyed peas.
  • Strip the parsley leaves from the stems; coarsely chop the leaves. Set aside half for garnish.
In a medium bowl, stir together the tomatoes, black-eyed peas, Greek vinaigrette, 1 tablespoon [2 TBL] oil, and half the parsley; season to taste with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, stir together the garlic yogurt and 2 tablespoons [¼ cup] oil; season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serve

Transfer the fritters and tomato salad to individual plates and top the fritters with the garlic yogurt. Garnish the dish with the remaining parsley and serve.
