Zucchini Pancakes

[Victoria]

Here's a recipe I enjoy for breakfast. Sort of a twist on the tuna melt...using zucchini instead of tuna.

1 small zucchini grated....(or 1/2 of large)
1 oz. Cheddar cheese grated
1 egg slightly beaten
1/4 cup ground almonds


Mix that together, add salt and pepper. Fry in pan with olive oil on low heat. Wait til it's golden brown to turn. I add a touch of garlic salt as well. Turn and brown. That's it. Just add a touch of butter, and it's great.

Here's the fitday numbers.

This sounds great! I made a similar recipe this morning before seeing yours. I mixed together a shredded zucchini, two eggs, a little salt, pepper, garlic powder, and a tablespoon of Atkins Bake mix. They cooked up really nice! Then I topped them with grated gruyere cheese. Yum.

I made these for breakfast this morning, and they were wonderful.
Thanks for posting the recipe, Victoria!

Just BTW, I came up with a different calorie total - only 370. ;) Slightly lower carb count too, but I guess that depends on how much zucchini you use.
