Any time is zucchini time! Try this quick-mix, nourishing meal loaded with fresh zucchini and eggs. Adapted by your Nutrition Ally from allrecipes.com.
Prep: 10 mins, Cook: 20 mins Makes 4 servings
Needed: grater or food processor
2 c grated zucchini (wash first and include the peel)
2 organic-fed, pasture-raised eggs
¼ c chopped onion
½ c all-purpose flour (may substitute whole wheat pastry flour or similar)
½ c grated Parmesan cheese
Sea salt and ground black pepper to taste
2-4 T ghee or coconut oil or grass-fed butter for cooking
Combine the zucchini, eggs, onion, flour, and cheese with sea salt in a medium bowl. Stir gently to moisturize all ingredients equally.
Heat a portion of the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Drop the zucchini mixture by heaping spoonfuls, or use a thumb-release ice cream scoop filled half-way (1/4 to 1/3 cup of batter). Cook a few minutes on each side, turning when golden.
Enjoy with a side of sauerkraut, sour cream, or plant-based plain yogurt.
