Ingredients 

  • 1 medium yellow summer squash, crookneck, or zucchini, shredded
  • 1 large carrot, shredded
  • 1 large egg, room temp
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen green peas, thawed
  • 1/2 cup freshly shredded cheese, like mozzarella, cheddar, or Mexican blend
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • sea salt and ground pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup oat flour
  • 2 Tbsps avocado oil or olive oil for frying

Instructions 

  • Place the shredded zucchini and carrot in a colander. Season with a generous pinch of salt and allow the veggies to eliminate the excess moisture. After 10 minutes, use your hands to squeeze out the liquid from the veggies, then place into a medium bowl.
  • Add in the egg, peas, cheese, seasonings, and oat flour.
  • Stir to combine really well and create a thick batter.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large frying pan or skillet, over medium heat.
  • Add a spoonful of the veggie batter, making sure you leave some space in between. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
  • Repeat with the remaining oil and batter.
  • Serve hot with plain Greek yogurt, no-sugar added ketchup, or homemade dip of choice such as our phenomenal Tzatziki sauce: https://cleanfoodcrush.com/clean-eating-homemade-tzatziki-sauce
  • Enjoy!
