Categories: Diabetic, Allergy, Vegetarian, Rice
Yield: 6 servings

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

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.
