Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large zucchini
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup mushrooms
- 1 medium carrot
- 2 stalks green onion
- 2 large eggs
- 0.5 cup almond flour
- 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
Grate the zucchini using a box grater. Place the grated zucchini in a clean dish towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. Set aside.
In a food processor, pulse the broccoli florets and mushrooms until finely chopped. Transfer the mixture to a large mixing bowl.
Peel and grate the carrot. Add it to the bowl with the broccoli and mushroom mixture.
Finely chop the green onions and add them to the mixing bowl along with the squeezed zucchini.
In a separate small bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Add them to the vegetable mixture.
Add the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, ground black pepper, and salt to the bowl.
Mix everything thoroughly until well combined and the mixture can hold together. If it feels too wet, add a little more almond flour, a tablespoon at a time.
Form the mixture into patties, about 3 inches in diameter.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Once hot, add the patties to the skillet in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook each patty for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the skillet and drain on a paper towel to remove any excess oil.
Serve warm, garnished with fresh herbs or alongside a dip of your choice. Enjoy your low-carb veggie patties!
