I was challenged by Countdown to create an easy and affordable recipe using 5x key products from their Great Price range. I landed on creating these delicious Corn, Cauliflower & Haloumi Spiced Fritters. This is a perfect lunch or dinner option to warm you up in winter. During the colder months I notice things get more expensive which is why shopping the Great Price range at Countdown is such a great option to help stick to the weekly budget. Not only are these fritters wallet friendly, they are also a good source of fibre and healthy fats – yum!
