Garden Fries

• 1 zucchini, shredded
• 1 yellow squash, shredded
• 1 large sweet potato, peeled and shredded
• 2 large carrots, peeled and shredded
• 1 yellow onion, shredded
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 12 cup complete pancake and waffle mix
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• salt and pepper
• vegetable oil (for frying)

1. Mix all shredded vegetables together in a mixing bowl.
2. Gently stir in the beaten eggs, and mix thoroughly.
3. Add the pancake mix (enough to make the shredded vegetables hold a shape when picked up with your hands to place in the heated oil).
4. Fry the pancakes on one side until golden brown.
5. Turn carefully, pressing with a spatula to flatten the cakes and cook all the way through.
6. As cakes are finished, remove to a paper towel and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
7. Keep cakes warm in a preheated 325 degree oven, placed on a rack to keep crisp.
8. Serve with sour cream, applesauce, or just as is!
