I told ya I was gonna be cooking us up
0:07
some zucchini and squash,
0:11
which zucchini and the yellow squash is both squash.
0:16
But I'm gonna be cookin' up
0:17
zucchini and yellow squash cakes.
0:22
So I've got little olive oil in my pan,
0:24
I've got a stick of butter.
0:28
All right, and over here in my bowl
0:32
I have grated up three medium zucchinis,
0:36
and three medium yellow summer squash.
0:40
Now I wanna make sure that there's no water in this.
0:44
So I'm gonna pour it in my colander.
0:48
And I'm just gonna squeeze it with some paper towels,
0:52
just try to absorb that water out of there
0:55
and just kinda pull it out.
0:58
Now we're gonna have to have some things
1:02
it's gonna help bind 'em and hold 'em together.
1:05
So in this bowl, I'm gonna add one egg.
1:12
One cup of shredded Parmesan cheese.
1:18
A third of a cup of diced vidalia onions,
1:22
and one and a half teaspoons of Italian seasoning.
1:28
All right, and I'm just gonna mix that up together.
1:33
Can y'all hear Ladybird?
1:37
She knows it's happy hour.
1:40
I'm gonna fix her a plate though in a little while.
1:43
I'm gonna take her one of those sweet and sour meatballs
1:47
and one of these zuchinni and squash cakes.
1:50
And she's gonna be one happy little bird.
1:54
All right, I'm gonna add a little fresh ground pepper to it.
1:58
And it depends on how much you like.
2:01
You want it hotter, add a little bit more.
2:03
And I'm gonna add, oh gosh probably
2:06
a half a teaspoon of salt.
2:09
All right now to this,
2:14
one cup of breadcrumbs.
2:20
I'm just gonna mix these ingredients together.
2:23
I've got all those crumbs good and moist.
2:26
So I'm gonna come over here,
2:28
and I'm gonna take my shredded zucchini,
2:32
and I'm just going to dump it into my breadcrumb mixture.
2:38
And now I'm gonna make about a two inch patty.
2:43
You know, I don't want 'em real, real big,
2:45
I want 'em just so people can pick 'em up.
2:49
To grate your squashes,
2:52
you don't wanna put this in a blender.
2:55
You can take just a regular ol' stand grater,
2:58
and have these grated up in no time flat.
3:01
And you don't even have to peel 'em,
3:03
now leave that peeling on
3:05
because the peeling has a lot of vitamins
3:11
But aren't these looking good?
3:18
Now we're gonna cook these for about
3:21
three minutes on each side, not very long at all.
3:26
All right, let's see if we can.
3:28
Doesn't that look good?
3:38
Now these are just our appetizers tonight
3:42
but these would be wonderful
3:43
with barbecue chicken, or with a steak.
3:48
They would be wonderful with a piece of grilled fish.
3:57
Those look delicious.
3:59
Now over here, I've got my platter ready
4:03
for our squash and zucchini cakes,
4:06
and I'm serving along with it tonight jarred marinara sauce.
4:12
Think these are 'bout ready to oops, come off.
4:18
I'm gonna just drain 'em for a second.
4:49
Don't those look delicious?
4:53
Hot as fire, but delicious.
5:05
Don't wanna burn my mouth.
5:23
Ladybird's gon' love it.
5:24
And I think y'all will too.
