My very first attempt at Veggie Fritters were a total success. Chickpea based, they are an excellent source of protein! I highly recommend making the hummus to go with these, it will make them extra delicious. The fritters taste really good as leftovers, too! Nom away friends as I take you to Veggie Fritter heaven.
