Shrimp Cakes with Squash, Red and Yellow Pepper & Parmesan

http://www.fitfoodbyal.com/2011/03/shrimp-cakes-with-squash-red-and-yellow.html


I used:

5-6 small yellow squash grated and drained well

2 eggs or eggbeaters (this time I used egg beaters)

3/4 of cup bread crumbs (I used italian but plain are OK)

1 package of small salad shrimp chopped

Add salt & pepper to taste (and any additonal seasonings on hand that you like)

1 small cooking onion chopped, sauteed, and cooled

bell peppers of your choice (I has red and yellow)Dice and saute with onion then cool

1/4 parmesan cheese (can make without if you don't have it)

Combine all the ingredients and form into patties about an inch thick

In a non stick cooking pan drizzle one table spoon of extra virgin olive olive oil and turn on low to medium heat.

Place patties into pan and cook for 2-3 mintues on each side until golden brown

Remove from pan and place onto paper towels to drain excess olive oil.
