Zucchini Corn Cakes

Zucchini Corn Cakes   Summer and it’s abundance of fresh produce makes it so easy to fix simple and delicious light meals.  These fresh Zucchini Corn Cakes are perfect for any meal, any time of the day.  They are so fresh and so simple to make, plus they store wonderfully in the fridge for a simple lunch or light dinner.   Make a big batch and keep them on hand –  They are actually good warm or cold, so you can just grab one out of the frig on the go.   The crunchy corn and fresh garden flavors make a wonderful treat.   Zucchini Corn Cakes   I like to serve them warm or cold with a dollop of  sour cream, some fresh tomatoes and fresh herbs, or salsa for a great side dish.  To make a light meal or meatless Monday, just add a  fresh salad packed with veggies.  We also love them with this Southwest Dipping Sauce.

  1. Hi, I like your recipes, but your “print ” option is not very ecofriendly. ! recipe in black and white…3 sheets of paper and 2 similar pictures. Please see if you can get it down to 1 sheet of paper.

  2. I sauted the corn and onion before adding them to the pancake batter. I also added 1 cup of shredded mozzarella. Great for lunch!

  3. Polly – great suggestions! Thanks!

  4. Do you cook the corn before taking it off of the cob?
