These were so delicious, and they received an enthusiastic thumbs-up from my husband and son. I drained the zucchini after grating it, but the zucchini mixture was a little watery and it was difficult to form into patties. I added some more Bisquick and then could form the patties with no problem. I fried the first batch on high and the outside got really dark, while the inside wasn't fully cooked. I turned down the heat to about medium-high and they turned out perfectly. We loved the crunchy crust and the vegetable mixture was so good! I put cheese on some of them and had no topping on the others -- both were equally good and I already have a request to make them again. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

These were tasty, and a great way to use up the summer abundance! I missed the part about draining the squash, and I don't recommend skipping that step as my batter was quite runny and the final product a little bit gummy. I added a fair amount of salt and pepper, and I imagine they would also be good with garlic or even green chiles. Thanks for posting! Made for Healthy Choices ABC.

Will the real zucchini please stand up? A complete and total transformation of the lowly zucchini. They vanished before my very eyes! Made for Farmer's Market.
