The recipe from my Clarion PA neighbor, Nell Miller, was called Poor Man Meatballs.
No meat was involved.
Take 3 zucchini and grate or use food processor. Tip bowl to let moisture run off and discard. Get zucchini as dry as you can.
Add an egg
and about 3/4 c Italian Bread crumbs. Add a minced garlic clove or two
Salt and pepper let sit a few minutes. Form in patties.
Sauté in olive oil ‘til brown on both sides. Cast iron skillet works wonderfully. Freshly grated Parmesan is always welcome


I love zucchini fritters
Looks delicious!
Oooh! That looks so so good!
Love zucchini pancakes, looks similar.
Looks delicious! And of course I love that it is meat-free. 🙂
Soon we’ll have zucchini coming out of our ears at the harvest.
Feast or famine – seems to be the way with zucchini, squash, and tomatoes…
