I was just mulling over what I would do to go about making carrot fritter - to grate? to mash? to fry? to deep fry? which herbs? Now I don't even have to go to the trouble of experimenting myself because these look fabulous! Definitely giving them a try.

These look wonderful - love the goat cheese and the spark from the lemon!

Thanks Liz! I just "borrowed" a few meyer lemons from a neighboring tree that had fallen to the ground and am making your lemon artichoke chicken tonight! Can't wait!!
