Cauliflower Broccoli Tots


Lately, my 1 1/2 year old has decided to do the worst thing possible to his momma, and veto vegetables...  I absolutely refuse to give up, even though it's not my favorite thing watching my clever, and not-so clever fixings get thrown across the room..

So these scrumptious little tots are my saving grace, and are the perfect way to 'fool' your little ones into eating something that you can truly smile about! :)




INGREDIENTS:

- 2 cups grated cauliflower (about half a large head)
- 1 1/2 cups grated broccoli (about one crown)
- 4 large eggs (preferably from pastured hens)
- 1/2 cup gluten-free oat flour (I use this kind)
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon unrefined sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dried onion
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- optional: good quality ketchup to serve with (homemade is best, or I like this kind)


DIRECTIONS:

1.  Preheat oven to 390 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2.  Wash and dry the cauliflower and broccoli, grate it in a cheese grater, and place in a large bowl.

3.  Add all other ingredients, and mix until well combined.  (If batter seems too wet, just add more oat flour to get the right consistency).

4.  Using a cookie scoop, scoop up mixture, place on cookie sheet, and flatten slightly with your hand.  (Freeze them at this point, if you'd like them for a later time.  Just thaw for about an hour in the refrigerator, then bake as instructed).

5.  Place in oven, and bake for 25 minutes.

6.  Remove from oven and serve as is, or with a good quality ketchup.


Enjoy!


Makes approximately 20-25 tots

  1. This could be really helpful in making children really eat some green vegetables as they generally try to avoid the green vegetables. You people can also try the Noni fruit extract as it can help you in maintaining good health for long.
