These veggie patties are outstanding! As long as you remember to squeeze any excess moisture out of the ones that are moister than others, you can make these with pretty much any grated vegetables. I love serving these with mashed potatoes – my husband’s favorite is when I fill a pitta bread with lettuce, tomatoes, and yogurt dressing, and then add a couple of these patties in there!
Quick Tip: You can make these with any type of veggies – use a different mixer each time!
Quickly frying them in the pan first will hold them together better, but overall baking in the oven is a healthier choice!
