Zucchini Patties.

Run. Don't walk. Where? To your garden or a farmers market or even your neightbors garden. Get yourself some zucchini. Seriously. Stop reading. Go now.

Are you back? Did you get a medium sized zucchini? Great! Now try this amazing recipe that I have been waiting to make for over a month now. In fact, I took two small zucchini from my garden because I couldn't wait any longer. And, let me tell you, I am glad I stopped waiting!

Zucchini Patties

(adapted from Gooseberry Patch)

1 medium zucchini, grated (about 3.5 cups)

1 small onion, grated

2 tablespoons parsley

1/2 cup parmesan cheese, gratedf

2 slices of bread, torn into small pieces

1 teaspoon season salt

1 teaspoon pepper

2 eggs, beaten

dry bread crumbs

1/4 cup butter, melted

Remove as much liquid from zucchini as possible. Combine zucchini, onion, parsley, cheese, bread, salt, pepper, and eggs. Press into patties; cover each side with dry bread crumbs. Place onto baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Drizzle the patties with butter. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes - flipping half way through. Patties are done when they turn golden.

Did you make them yet? Aren't you glad you went to the neighbor's garden and took a zucchini? Maybe you should take them this recipe to make up for it. Hopefully they still have some zucchini left!!
