Nice way to use abundant veggies, in an easy, quick, relatively healthy manner. I used parsnips instead of carrots, cause that's what I had. And red onion instead of scallions. Found they cooked nicely with only a trace of oil in the pan. Good with hot honey mustard. Will use again for veggies that grate nicely, esp bags of frozen zucchini from the summer. Is important to drain the extra water, if you have time.

Super easy & everyone LOVED them!! This is how I substituted based on what I had on hand- All the dry & wet ingredients were the same however I used 2cups of grated zucchini & minced red onion. SO GOOD. I used 3/4c of flour. The batter should be like a pancake. After flipping them the 1st time flatten them with the spatula, that way they will cook though out. Did not top them with anything. I think if you stick to the dry & wet ingredients you can have fun with the veggies. Can't wait to use potatoes & bacon OR corn, YUM

I am giving this recipe 5 stars because it provides the basic proportions and ingredients for great veggie cakes. The recipe does need a bit of tweaking to make it really great. To avoid soggy pancakes, I shredded the zucchini ahead of time (approximately one hour and sprinkled with salt. Prior to mixing all the ingredients, I squeezed out the water from the zucchini and got really nice texture to the final product. They came out soft but not soggy and held their shape nicely through the cooking process. My two year-old likes these. I like the idea of adding a bit of cheese and garlic to these to layer more flavors.

They were ok. Would have been better if they would have got crispier. I also had a problem with getting the middle cooked even though I made small pancakes and pushed down on the middle after scooping. I usually love a good Paula recipe, but I probably won't make this again.

TO WALDZGRL: In response to your concerns with this dish: Yes, you should use a bit more flour and YES the veggies are TOO WET. I have found that you should plan ahead a little for these. Grate your veggies, lay them out FLAT on a paper towel and COVER AND PRESS with another paper towel. Get a lot of the liquid out and transfer between 2 new, dry paper towels and press the water out again. Take the top paper towel off and let them stand so the air hits them for about an hour. Also, don't leave them "puffy" when frying, press them out so they're more like a pancake than a "ball". And the batter isn't like a traditional pancake batter, there should be little to no liquid at all when all ingredients are mixed together. These few little tips make them PERFECT. OH, and try dipping them in apple sauce. DELICIOUS!!!

I really like these! They are tasty, simple and like others said, the ingredients are usually in my fridge and pantry, and if not, are easily substituted to make just as good of a dish. BUT...can anyone help me out? I can't seem to get mine to cook all the way through and they tend to be crisper on the edges and mushy in the middle no matter how long I leave them on the heat! Should I use more flour, are the veggies to wet? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. :

A wonderful way to use some of the zucchini from the garden. I used double the zucchini and no carrots and it was great. Served with applesauce or dusted with powdered sugar.

This is one of the best recipes I have ever made. These are so delicious! One thing I really like about this recipe is that it is inexpensive and the ingrediants are things I have in my pantry on a regular basis. Who would think something so simple could be so great?
