I LOVE zucchini and this recipe in particular. I am posting the original recipe from Allrecipes.com with my initial adjustments. However, it is extremely versatile! I have made it tossing in shredded carrots, shredded Summer Squash, corn, peppers, different cheeses, and various spices! It has been a winner EVERY TIME! These are great warmed up the next day for breakfast too! The ONLY draw back, I have not been able to make them successfully without frying them. :( I tried with PAM but it didn't work.

Ingredients For versatile zucchini patties

  • 2 cups grated zucchini (or various vegetables; carrots, corn, etc)
  • salt
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

How To Make versatile zucchini patties

  • 1
    Spread zucchini. Lay out on paper towels or in a colander (with a bowl under it), sprinkle zucchini with salt and let rest for at least 30 minutes (I get best results when I let it sit for several hours). This step pulls out excess moisture from the zucchini/squash.
  • 2
    In a medium bowl, combine the zucchini, eggs, onion, flour, Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese (add seasoning at this time as well if you desire).
  • 3
    Heat a small amount of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Drop zucchini mixture by heaping tablespoonfuls, and cook for a few minutes on each side until golden.
  • Last Step: Don't forget to share! Make all your friends drool by posting a picture of your finished recipe on your favorite social network. And don't forget to tag Just A Pinch and include #justapinchrecipes so we can see it too!
