In the great tadition of other food blogger, and recently having moved in with vegetarian, I am starting my first post with a 'Meatless Mondays' post. This recipe I read first on what has been a favorite site for quite a while,
Lifes Ambrosia, and modified it a bit for flavor and to add some veggies. Now sadly I can't include any images until later in the week, so you will have to enjoy it as is for now.
This recipe is great because they can be made into pattys (for burgers), cakes (for sandwhichs or on its own), or balls (makes amazing appatizers).
Zucchini Cakes
- large zucchini grated, moisture blotted gently with a paper towel
- 3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs
- 1 clove garlic, minced super small
- 1 egg
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 Cup Spouts (Clover Sprouts are AWESOME)
- 2-3 Tablespoon Olive Oil
- (Optional)1/2 cup onions, finely diced
- (Optional)1/2 cup celery, finely diced
Grate the Zucchini into a bowl, then blot with a paper towel to remove excess moisture, stir to get to the bottom zucchini and blot again. Grate the cheese into the bowl, add the sprouts, Optional Ingredients, garlic, bread crumbs, egg, and salt & pepper; mix very well until it is COMPLETELY evenly mixed. Make them into patty or cakes no thicker then an inch or inch and a 1/2 thick, add the oil to a pan, and fry over medium-low heat.
