Happy St Patrick's Day




Yeah, I know it's August 3. BUT, the Wakley's are going to have a fun, festive GREEN week! We have zucchini, folks! My mother in law took pity on me and gave me 3. AND I have 3 that are ready to pick in my sad little garden. (yipee).
This will be the first time that I EVER have posted a recipe on my blog, but my kids all loved it so I thought I would share. I got this recipe up at my sister in law's this weekend from her Vita Mix Cookbook for zucchini pancakes. I'll post the link, so I don't get in trouble for stealing it. (But, come closer so that I can whisper to you that I didn't use the VitaMix blender thing, I just used my blender and it worked fine).
My kids thought it was St Patrick's day yesterday with green pancakes. Maddie (who won't eat green) said, "well, I'll try a bite." and she ate 5 pancakes! The pancakes are super dense and the texture is a little different because of the zucchini, but look at the 3g of fiber and 7g protein! I was just about giddy that they all ate them so well (and they all ate a TON of turkey bacon, too).
So, here's the link for zucchini pancakes. I hope you all give 'em a try! And if you have a great recipe with zucchini for me, please let me know!
