Zucchini Mock Crab Cakes

"My sister-in-law gave me this and I tweaked it to suit our tastes. It is actually pretty good, especially when Crab costs more!! I made them for a group of church people and they all devoured them...lol. I didn't have the heart to tell them there was no crab in them...lol. Cook time is frying time"

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am married, have three children and two grandchildren. My youngest "oops" baby is just turning 17 and is going to be a senior in high school in the fall.. I love to cook and collect recipes. I get a lot of my good recipes from church potlucks. Since I am now retired and a stay at home mom, I have time to search the RecipeZaar site and try a lot of the recipes. We love living on the coast and would never move back inland!
