sour cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: plain yogurt

Greek yogurt maintains creaminess with fewer calories.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is a cost-effective alternative for frying.

flour

🥗Healthier: almond flour

💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour

All-purpose flour is more economical and widely available.

Blanch broccoli florets in a pot of boiling water for 2 minutes or just until cooked. Drain well and cut into small pieces (almost like broccoli rice).

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the cheddar cheese, parmesan cheese, garlic, flour, spices, and chopped broccoli to the bowl. Stir until fully combined.

Heat oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Scoop 1/4 cup of batter and drop into the pan, gently flattening with a spoon, to about ½ inch thickness.

Cook each fritter for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.

Serve with sour cream, Greek yogurt, Sriracha mayo, or your favorite dipping sauce!
