Baked Vegan Kale & Corn Fritters

It looks like it is going to be one of those weeks where I am going to try and live off of what we have in the plantry and what is left in the refrigerator.  Between traveling and celebrating, time just seemed to get away from us and we never made it to the grocery store.

But, luckily, I always have staples in the plantry.  Canned goods and dry goods are always in abundance around here.  I think it is always important to have items such as corn, a variety of beans, grains, etc.  And, no matter what, you will always find kale in my fridge.

So, hmmmm...let's see what I can find in the plantry today: 
Canned corn? Yup.
Corn meal? Check.
Kale?  Duh.

It only made sense to create some healthy baked, vegan fritters.  By adding a few other staples, I was well on my way to a yummy and satisfying dinner without spending a dime or leaving the house!
