Great recipe,yooper! I let the zucchini sit for a while and then squeezed out all the moisture I could. I browned the patties in the fat from the bacon and cooked them up nice and crisp. Loved this!

Marvelous recipe !!! I actually believe these are better than regular hash-browns in flavor and texture. Never again will I have to miss the taste of potatoes while on a low-carb eating plan...these are the perfect replacement. I had the zucchini when I came across this recipe and decided to try it immediately. I grated the zucchini with my food processor which made it so easy to porepare. I made 1/2 the recipe for just myself and found the patrties store and reheat well. The only change was the addition on 1 heaping Tablespoon of soy flour and cooked on low awhile as Miraklegirl suggested. I made a full recipe this week and have enjoyed them with my dinner meal along with breakfast. I topped some patties with a scant tablespoon of cottage cheese and others with plain low- fat yogurt as I am shying away from sour cream right now. Naturally I had to " cheat" and had one with catsup...yummmmmy. I suggest you give this recipe a try even if you are not on any special diet.... thanks for sharing Yooper !!!!

I halved this recipe and substituted a little skim mozzarella for the parmesan. It turned out very well and I was grateful to have something different for my South Beach Diet breakfast. I recommend cooking the patties a little longer on a low fire just to soften up the grated zucchini a little more. I will definately make these again. Thanks Yooper.

My husband was so thrilled to have this! He started the Atkins diet and wanted something a little different. These "hash browns" were the perfect thing. I cut the recipe in half very easily, and served them with a little sour cream on top. Hubby just loved them. Thanks, yooper!

Very good zucchini recipe. I sauteed the patties in bacon drippings because I had some on hand. Followed the recipe exactly but had difficulty keeping the patties together. May add a little amount of flour to the mixture the next time I made these.

I loved these things. As another reviewer said, I also think I like these better than hash brown potatoes. I can't wait to make them again for breakfast as a base for low carb Eggs Benedict. The only change I'll make is to let them sit in a strainer for a while after squeezing the first time. They were still giving up moisture after I mixed with the other ingredients. I'll also be sure to use a nonstick fry pan next time.

While I wouldn't consider these a hash brown substitute I would consider them a delicious addition to any meal. Took advantage of the previous 11 reviewers' suggestions. I added onion, squeezed the zucchini again after letting it sit in a collander for 2-3 hours, cooked it on low for 5 minutes each side, then raised the heat and crisped the patties for 2 minutes each side in a nonstick pan. Will be making these again.

I just made these today and they were very good! The only thing I wish I had done was press them down flatter while they were cooking. Inside was just a tad to soft.

Very nice. I will make these for breakfast a lot. I also added some finely chopped onion to the mix. They were great. Thanks.

I prepared these as part of my breakfast, but think that I would prefer them as a part of lunch. I think that serving them up with cottage cheese and sliced tomatoes would be wonderful. I used roasted garlic instead of regular and butter-flavored cooking spray instead of the butter. The patties were a bit softer than I had anticipated, but the flavor was good. I like the suggestion of adding a bit of onion. I appreciate the review that notes the patties store and reheat well, as I will be having a couple for lunch. Thanks for posting.
