Zucchini Hash Browns - Veg 5 pts xp

[Guest guest]

HI Chupa! thanks for all the great recipes!

 

This one is vegetarian, rather than vegan, are the pts for weight

watchers??

 

I'm not sure what could substitute for 4 eggs... I suppose it

couldn't hurt to try flax meal goop... or a soymilk/ soy flour combo??/

 

any suggestions anyone?

 

=)

happy new year!
