So you don’t squeeze the zucchini – it makes up for no added liquid?
Also WHERE did you get the square patty tins? Thank you
These are amazing! And so quick and easy! I made these tonight for the kids lunches next week.
Do they freeze well?
Hi Niki,
Wonderful, They do freeze well. Let them cook fully first as they can go a little watery ?
Regards.
I leave the bacon out as I can’t find additive free but I replace with cooked chicken. I also leave out the flour and I add 1 chopped onion and 1/4 cup cream. I’ve been doubling the recipe as they freeze so well!
