I had a recipe for 'mock crab cakes'. Maybe someone can Google it, but it used grated zucchini, and Old Bay seasoning. They were good. I'll have to try and find it.

Yes, my Mom made them all the time, from yellow and green squash, yum with a little sour cream.

I've never made these. Sound wonderful. However, I grew up on fried squash. My mom (and I) would slice squash, dip it in egg and flour, and fry it till it was golden on both sides. Oh, it was so good. I couldn't fry enough for my son.

Re: Ever make Squash Patties??

What a great recipe. I will probably bake them at 350 degrees like I do my salmon patties. That way we can cut down on the fat. I also have been doing a lot of stuffed mushrooms lately. I think I might try putting some of this mix in the mushroom caps and mixing a little shredded cheese into the mix. Num, num!

Love those mock crab cakes with zucchini. I make them a lot when the harvest comes in.
