Next time you have a fish fry, try squash puppies in place of hush puppies. I think you will be pleasantly surprised! These are very much like hush puppies. Excellent choice for a fish fry! Enjoy!

I'm not a huge fan of squash, but these were actually really good. The breading was perfect and the squash was cooked just right.

I've never had squash puppies before, but they were delicious! The squash was soft and flavorful, and the breading was crispy and golden brown. I would definitely make these again.

I've made squash puppies a few times now and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I love that they're so versatile - you can add different spices or herbs to change up the flavor. They're also a great way to use up leftover squash.
