No matter what you say that it is an appetizer for lunch and dinner, I will never say no to it for the breakfast.

Zucchini has excessive water inside of it and it is always recommended to make sure that it should be dried before use. It will never bind if it has excessive water.

Sure wish there was a way to print this. Can’t even copy just to print.
Mine didn’t turn out as pretty as yours. Looked more like Latkes. I did add a large clove of garlic and fresh Basil and Italian Parsley from my garden. Easy to make and delicious.
