Ingredients

4 zucchini (4 medium to large zucchinis, grated or shredded in a food processor; 6 to 7 cups)
1 tsp TH Mineral Salt
3 large eggs
1/3 cup TH Baking Blend
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (1/4 cup powder-style Parmesan cheese; from the green can)
4 cloves fresh garlic (4 to 6 fresh garlic cloves)
3/4 tsp black pepper
1 sprinkle TH Nutritional Yeast (generous sprinkle nutritional yeast)
1/4 onion (very finely diced; optional)
butter (and or flavorless coconut oil for frying)

Instructions

1
Place the grated zucchini in a colander over the sink. Toss with the salt and allow to sit for 5 to 10 minutes. After that time, squeeze down the zucchini using a clean cloth to drain out as much of the liquid as you can, but no big deal if some remains.
2
Transfer the zucchini to a large bowl and combine with eggs, Baking Blend, Parmesan, garlic, pepper, nutritional yeast, and onion (if using).
3
Working in batches, heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon coconut oil in a large skillet over medium to mediumhigh heat. Drop generous tablespoon-size mounds of the mixture into the skillet. Flatten them out with a spatula so the zucchini gets cooked through. Brown on both sides. Continue to cook more batches, each time using 2 tablespoons of the fat.
