Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
Nonstick vegetable spray
1 1/2 c Cooked brown rice
1 c Zucchini shredded
1/4 c Onion, chopped
1/2 c Wheat germ
1/4 c Walnuts, chopped
1 c Med. cheddar cheese shredded
3 Eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 ts Thyme
1/2 ts Marjoram
1/4 ts Black pepper

My notes: Omit wheat germ for gluten-free diet.
Substitute bran if wheat germ is not available, used
to add fiber.

Preheat oven to 350 F. Spray 9 x 5 inch loaf pan with
non-stick vegetable spray. Combine ingredients and
pack into loaf pan.

Bake 40 - 45 minutes or until brown on edges and firm
to touch. Cut into slices. Serve hot or at room
temperature with a salad.

OR Microwave in glass loaf pan covered with wax paper
for 8 minutes on high power. Rotate once. OR if
mixture holds together well enough, shape into patties
and brown in a non-stick frying pan.
