Served with breaded tillapia this completed a tasty meal. The biggest difficulty was dealing with the water produced by the zucchini and squash. Leave a little so your cakes don't come out dry.

Flavors were good except too salty. Patty's did not hold together, probably needed more egg. Rather disappointed in the overall outcome.

I squeezed the water out with a kitchen towel and added 2 eggs instead of one along with Panko bread crumbs. I used spray and fried them slightly on each side. I then added some marinara to the bottom of a baking pan, and then layered the cooked pancakes, topped with shredded mozzarella, some prosciutto and more sauce. I baked it for 20 min. at 350 and it was out of this world!

Delicous! Even from someone who's not much of a vegatable fan. I read the reviews, put my squash in a strainer while I was shredding it, blotted it with a paper towel, put it in a zip lock with a hole in it and squeezed. Then, I put it in the fridge while i was getting everything else together. I still felt like it was very wet, but I didn't spend more than 20 minutes on it. I also used an extra egg because I was paranoid that they would fall apart. They turned out great! My husband said it tasted like veal parmasean.

Like everyone else (most I only changed using goat cheese and graded Parm. scallions instead of onion and abit more bread cumbs. Delicious. Will make over and over. I liked the idea of added crab as someone mentioned. will try next time.

I took the earlier suggestion of grating the sqash a day early. However it was still very moist so i put it in a ziplock bag and cut a tiny hole in one corner and squeezed out all the excess water. I also used only half the butter and fried them in my cast iron skillet. I used half mozzerella cheese and half cheddar because i had no parmesan. I layered the cakes and put marinara sauce between the layers and served it as the main dish with sweet potatos and green beans. When my son was finshed, he asked for more lasagna. Lol. He had no clue he was eating squash.

Loved this recipe! However, you must dry of the squash and zucchini or you won't be able to get the patties to bind correctly. I will bake them next time instead of frying. My bratty son did not enjoy them but the rest of us loved them.

Antyhing that gets my kids to eat veggies is a 5 star recipe in my book - Love the flavors and they were devoured before I could get seconds. I agree with the comment about getting rid of water- this is key to getting the right texture. For any Celiacs out there we substituted a mixture of gluten free cracker/bread crumbs to make this a great gluten free recipe.
