Broccoli Tots
These broccoli tots are a fun and delicious way to eat more greens. They make a great side dish or snack.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups lightly packed finely chopped raw broccoli, (see note)
- 1/2 cup Italian seasoned panko bread crumbs, (see note)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Add broccoli, breadcrumbs, cheese and egg into a large mixing bowl. Mix with a large spoon until everything is combined.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silpat mat. Take a small handful of broccoli mix (a little over 1 tbsp), and squeeze into the palm of your hand about 2-3 times to compact the shape and squeeze out excess liquid. Then use hands to shape into small cylinders, the size of tater tots (about 1 inch long). Place onto lined baking sheet. Repeat until all broccoli is used up
- Bake for about 15 minutes. Bottom of tots should be golden brown. Flip tots over and bake for another 8-10 minutes. Serve with ketchup or other dipping sauce.
Notes
- I recommend using a food processor to finely chop the broccoli. One head of broccoli will yield about 1 1/2 cups.
- If you use non-seasoned panko breadcrumbs, make sure to add Italian seasoning to your mix.
