Broccoli Tots Ingredients

- 1 large or two small heads broccoli, stems removed and cut into florets
- 1/3 cup shallots or red onion, chopped

Broccoli Tots Directions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Whisk together flax meal and water to make flax egg. Set aside for 5 minutes.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add broccoli for 1 minute to blanch then remove from heat, drain and rinse with cold water.
- In a food processor, combine blanched broccoli, chopped onion/shallots and garlic. Pulse and blend until mixture is grainy-like – be careful not to over-mix into a paste.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine broccoli mixture with remaining ingredients. Adjust seasonings to taste.
- Cover bowl and place in fridge to set mixture for 20-30 minutes.
- Form mixture into tot shapes and place in rows onto lined baking sheet.
- Bake tots for 20-30 minutes at 425 degrees F. Turn halfway through to brown evenly on both sides.
- Once baked, remove from heat and let cool for about 5 minutes.
- Serve with Cashew Ranch (recipe coming soon) or other homemade sauce and enjoy!
