Vegetable Croquettes: Quick and Easy to Make!
Recipe Swaps and Variations
Vegan Option: Use a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons water) and omit the cheese.
Spicy Kick: Add a finely chopped chili or a teaspoon of chili powder to the vegetable mixture.
Different Vegetables: Experiment with different vegetables like sweet potatoes, zucchini, or bell peppers.
How to Store Leftovers
Leftover Vegetable Croquettes can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes, or until heated through. You can also freeze the croquettes before baking. Simply place them on a baking sheet, freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag. Bake from frozen, adding an additional 5-10 minutes to the baking time.
Food and Drink Pairings
These Vegetable Croquettes pair wonderfully with a variety of dipping sauces such as ketchup, aioli, or a spicy yogurt dip. Serve them alongside a fresh green salad for a light meal, or with a hearty soup for a more substantial dinner. A glass of chilled white wine or a refreshing lemonade complements the flavors beautifully.
