Directions
Enclose the three shredded vegtables in a clean kitchen towl; wring over sink to remove as much moisture as possible.
Place vegetables in large bowl and immediately mix in bell pepper, onions, egg, bread crumbs, salt and pepper to blend thoroughly.
In large nonstick skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil over medium-high heat.
With 1/4-cup measure, portion mixture into skillet to make four pancakes, pressing down to flatten each mound to about 1/3 inch, and spacing apart.
