Zucchini Grilled Cheese

Ingredients

8 ounces Zucchini (grated)
1/4 tsp. Salt
1 large Egg(s)
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Classic Style Breadcrumbs (or gluten-free breadcrumbs)
1 large Green onions (thinly sliced)
1/4 cup Cornstarch
1 to taste Black pepper
1 spray Spray olive oil
1/3 cup, shredded Reduced fat cheddar cheese

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F.

Grate zucchini and place in a medium bowl. Sprinkle salt over the shredded zucchini and mix. Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes.

Remove zucchini from the bowl and put onto cheesecloth or a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible.

In a medium bowl combine zucchini, egg, parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, green onions, cornstarch, and pepper. Mix well.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray with pan spray oil.

Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, lay out measured piles onto the parchment and then pat them down into 4" squares about a quarter of an inch in thickness.

Bake the patties for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Flip to other side and bake for another 5 minutes.

Add about a tablespoon and a half of shredded cheddar to one patty. Top with other patty to form a sandwich.

"I went into a French restaraunt and asked the waiter, 'Have you got frog's legs?' He said, 'Yes,' so I said, 'Well hop into the kitchen and get me a cheese sandwich.'"
