This recipe is a little more complicated than what I like to feature but is really very good. The recipe features horseradish which is a powerful bacteria and parasite modulating herb. The recipe also features nutmeg and garlic which have been shown to have antibacterial properties. The patties are based on zucchini, which being high in plant-based complex carbs can help encourage the diversity of bacteria that contribute to healthy weight management, strong Butyrate production and reduced digestive and systemic inflammation.

Ingredients

Patties
• 4 cups zucchini, grated
• ¼ cup nutritional yeast
• ¼ cup psyllium
• 1 pinch nutmeg
• ¼ teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon chia
• ¼ cup water
• ½ teaspoon Himalayan Salt
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• ⅓ cup celery, chopped fine
• ¼ cup walnuts, chopped fine

Horseradish Cream

• 1 clove garlic
• 1 teaspoon horseradish, freshly grated or prepared
• ¼ cup almonds
• ¼ cup water
• ¼ teaspoon Himalayan Salt
• ½ teaspoon nutritional yeast
• ¼ cup flax oil
• 1 whole lemon, juiced

Instructions

Horseradish Cream Preparation:
Soak the almonds for 8 hours prior to making this sauce if possible

Rinse and drain the almonds
Blend all Horseradish Cream ingredients until they are as smooth as possible

Preparing the Patties:
Grate the zucchini into a large bowl. Sprinkle with Himalayan salt, massage lightly and set aside to release some water

Pulse the dry ingredients including the spices, chia, salt, nutritional yeast and psyllium in the food processor until combined (except the salt)

Chop the celery and walnuts finely

Drain the zucchini as well as you can to remove any excess moisture

Mix in the celery, walnuts and the dry ingredients by hand

Set aside for 20 minutes

Forming the Patties:
Create patties out of handfuls of this mixture and lay them on mesh dehydrator screens or baking sheets

Dehydrate the patties until they are crispy on the outside but still soft on the inside

If you are using the oven you can bake the patties at 350 until they are firm

You can also try dehydrating these on the lowest possible setting of your oven with the door open for several hours but please watch this carefully if you are choosing this option

Serve the patties warm with the Horseradish Cream
