Veggie Patties
(similar to Broccoli Patties from That’s My Home but with mixed Steamer veggies)
1 cup frozen mixed bell peppers, thawed
1/4 onion, chopped
1 tsp minced garlic
Margarine (large heaping spoonful)
1 package of Steamer cauliflower, broccoli and carrots (steamed and cooled, patted dry)
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup Italian bread crumbs
1 cup Italian mix cheese shreds
1/4 cup Parmesan dried cheese
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Saute onion, garlic and peppers in margarine until translucent and thick.
Combine onion mixture with steamed vegetables and mince/chop into small pieces in large bowl.
(I used my Cuisinart stick blender. Use a food processor or hand chop if you want bigger chunks of vegetables.)
Mix eggs, bread crumbs and both kinds of cheese in large bowl.
Combine both bowls of ingredients, mixing well.
Form into patties and flatten out on well-oiled cookie sheet.
DO NOT use cooking spray. Use actual oil.
Cook on each side for 12-15 minutes.
Drain on paper towels and serve warm. Top with sour cream or your favorite sauce.
