I was skeptical when I first looked at this recipe but with the abundance of yellow squash from my garden I needed something new. As I mixed it, I was still skeptical. When I started frying them, the smell was incredible! Even my hubby noticed it from the living room. After I tasted one, I did go back and add more seasonings~ones that my family enjoys to add a little kick to food. One thing I definitely recommend is adding cheddar cheese to the mix. My hubby dipped these in ranch dressing and I used horsey sauce. They are definitely going to be on our table again very soon! Thank youu for sharing this recipe Ann!

We loved this recipe and a great way to get kids to eat veggies. We have changed a little by using zucchini and carrots.

We really enjoyed these :) I found I had to add quite a bit more flour than called for, but the outcome is delicious nonetheless!

These were really good. I did switch the amounts around for potato and squash so they were squash potato cakes instead. It's what I had on hand. The batter was very wet and didn't want to add alot of flour so just went with it. May try using Pam next time to cut down on fat. I'm just not crazy about frying things in oil.

These were good but really bland. The 2nd time I made them, I added 1/3 cup parmesean cheese, 1 jalapeno pepper chopped small and1/3 cup chopped bell pepper. For the salt and pepper I used cajun seasoning. They had a much better flavor with these adjustments :)!!! Thanks for a really good idea!

I used green onions as the onions, and whole wheat flour in place of the baking mix. Instead of frying in oil, I just put the cakes on a vegetable sprayed griddle. I can taste the summer squash in these hash browns! Great recipe!

Very Tasty! I used zucchini instead of yellow squash and used fresh garlic. I salted and drained the shredded potatos and squash to release some liquid. If you need a bit more flavor add any seasoning that you like. I added some dried italian herbs and some fresh sage. The amount of oil in the recipe seems a bit excessive. I just coated the pan with a bit of olive oil and it was fine (remember no extra virgin because of the smoke point :-))

Yummers! After shreading the potatoes and squash I rang out the excess water (wrapped up in a paper towel) to cut down on the liquid. Used egg beaters and 3 oz. shreaded low fat cheese. These came out wonderful. This recipe is a keeper!
