A Delicious Way To Use Up Those Yummy Zukes

3 1/2 cups grated zucchini (about 1 pound)
3 Tbs Onion, grated
2 Tbs Parsley, finely chopped
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
1 c Italian bread crumbs
1/4 c finely crushed Italian bread crumbs
3/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
2 large eggs, well beaten
melted butter

Preheat oven to 350. After grating zucchini, squeeze out excess water (as much as possible) with hands. Combine zucchini, onion, parsley, cheese and 1 cup of bread crumbs, salt, pepper and eggs. Shape into patties and coat with crushed bread crumbs. Place on well-greased baking sheet and lightly brush with melted butter.

Bake in 350 degree oven for 30-40 minutes or until golden brown. Alternate method: Saute in a skillet with butter, if preferred.

When done, remove from baking sheet or pan and place on paper towels to remove any excess grease and moisture.
