Servings: persons

2 ounces yellow onions
1 ounce green onion (scallions)
4 medium garlic cloves
2 ounces cabbage
4 ounces green zucchini
2 ounces crookneck yellow squash or 2 ounces pattypan squash
4 ounces sliced cremini mushrooms
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (Italian parsley)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons hot water
1/2 cup almond meal
2 tablespoons coconut flour
2 tablespoons garbanzo flour (Bob's Red Mill garbanzo-fava flour)
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
1 tablespoon powdered peanut butter (JustGoodStuff or PB2)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon smoked spanish paprika
2 teaspoons ground coriander
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon coconut oil, for sauteing

1
Place the onions, garlic, cabbage, zucchini, squash, mushrooms, parsley, and cilantro in a food processor and whir until minced.
2
In a large, flat skillet, saute the minced vegetables until they are slightly browned, then remove from heat.
3
Place sauteed vegetables, hot water, and the almond meal, coconut flour, garbanzo flour, nutritional yeast, powdered peanut butter, spices/salt/pepper, and baking powder in a large bowl and combine well. Add more coconut flour if required.
4
Place mixture in an airtight container and allow to cool in refrigerator for 30 minute to meld.
5
To cook: take approximately a tablespoon of the mixture, and make into patties a bit less than 1/2-inch thick. Saute both sides of patties in coconut oil on a medium heat - they brown fairly quickly, so keep watch, it only takes a couple of minutes per side.
6
Serve in pita, whole wheat tortillas, or low-in-carb wraps with baby spinach as greens with tahini-yogurt sauce, and enjoy!

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
