Hi All!

Because I'm diabetic I rarely eat any carbs and I NEVER EAT ANY REFINED CARBS.

But I was using bread crumbs as a binder to make my veggie patties, sprout patties, various sorts of patties. I would throw in egg whites, chopped onions and any mashed up veggies that I had and I would then throw some sprouts in, mash it all up, make a patty, spray some PAM and add a bit of vegetable oil, make the pan hot, and add the patties, turning until browned and cooked.

And then adding a dollop of my yogurt dill dressing. Absolutely delicious but then again, THERE WERE THOSE CARBS FROM THE BREAD CRUMBS.

Wel!!! today I said "I'm just going to make sprout patties, with no bread crumbs.

So I took my sprouts (BROCCOLI, FENUGREEK AND RADISH SPROUTS). Just imagine all these green leaves peaking at the tops of the white sprouts (absolutely beautiful to look at). I put them in a bowl, add some chopped onion, added an egg (you can use substitute or egg whites). Then I took a fork, mixed it all up, did the PAM bit in the frying pan, and put in some oil Not a lot of oil, but just to cover the bottom a bit. Then I got it hot, took some of the mixture in my hand, and while it doesn't form a pattie, I didn't care, because when it hits the hot oil, it makes a birds nest kind of thing (if you can understand what I mean.

When you turn it over and it's done, it's all crispy.I drained them completely on my paper napkins so they were nice and dry, and there is no saturated fat at all.

So when they were all ready, I added the yogurt and my husband said "oh my god, these are better than the others, they are so crisp".

So I now have NEW PATTIES, NO CARBS, No saturated fat, crisp and delicious, and you can top with yogurt, applesauce, anything you want.

These are absolutely to die for.
