Latkes are a quintessential dish for celebrating Hanukkah. The oil used to fry the latkes is a symbol of the oil that kept the menorah aflame for eight days in the Second Temple of Jerusalem with only a one-day supply. To make this celebratory dish even more delicious and nutritious, we added a green veggie to create our Zucchini Potato Latkes from Seasonal Cravings recipe developer, Karen Kelly.

These savory and crispy treats pair well with applesauce and can be eaten any time of year! Add some more greens to the meal with our Winter Harvest Salad or check out our other holiday recipes.
