Ok, Denise (and all interested in zucchini pancakes)...!

First -- you go to Costco.

Buy GABELIA'S ZUCCHINI PANCAKES from freezer section.

I am laughing. But this is the recipe.

Keep in freezer till ready to cook. Put extra virgin olive oil (of course) in pan. Saute 2 minutes on each side. Serve. Eat.

My family like raspberry jam w/these. But they are excellent with nothing. They are 120 calories each. I had 1 last night -- without spreading any omega 3 on it. LOL... My husband had 1 and 1/2 (which he split w/my son-in-law who'd already eaten his 1). My dghtr ate 1. I could have eaten 2 for sure.

Really yummy delicious!! **** 4 stars!!!!

(Aside: I swallowed my Omega 3 and alllllllll my other supplements with a gallon of filtered water an hour before and ate a banana.)

This is how I "cook"...

Much love,
Andi
