Time 1h14m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 (12 ounce) bag broccoli florets
2 teaspoons sea salt, divided
¾ cup finely shredded Cheddar cheese
½ cup panko bread crumbs
⅓ cup minced onion
1 egg
3 slices cooked bacon, finely chopped
2 tablespoons ranch dressing mix
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons olive oil, or to taste

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place 1/2 of the broccoli florets in a food processor; pulse about 20 times until it looks like grains of rice. Repeat with remaining broccoli florets.
Fill a large, shallow saucepan with 1/2 inch water; add 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and add broccoli rice. Cover and simmer until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and let cool, about 10 minutes.
Transfer broccoli rice to the center of a clean absorbent dish towel. Squeeze and twist the towel to remove as much of the moisture as possible.
Mix Cheddar cheese, bread crumbs, onion, egg, bacon, ranch dressing mix, and parsley together in a large bowl. Mix in broccoli rice until mixture sticks together when pressed into a ball.
Scoop 1 1/2 tablespoons of mixture with a small ice cream scoop; form into a ball and press into the shape of a tot using oiled hands. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining mixture.
Drizzle olive oil over broccoli tots. Sprinkle remaining 1 teaspoon salt on top.
Bake in the preheated oven, turning halfway with tongs, until golden brown, about 24 minutes.

Ingredients

1 zucchini
1 sweet potato, peeled
½ head broccoli
1 carrot, peeled
1 teaspoon salt, divided
⅓ cup grated parmesan cheese
⅓ cup panko breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
On a cutting board, grate the zucchini, sweet potato, carrot, and broccoli with a coarse cheese grater.
Transfer the grated vegetables to a medium bowl and season with ½ teaspoon of salt. Mix until well incorporated.
Let the vegetables sit for 20 minutes until the salt has drawn out some of the moisture.
Transfer the grated veggies into a kitchen towel and twist to strain as much liquid as you can.
Place the grated veggies back into a bowl and mix with the Parmesan, panko, pepper, remaining salt, onion powder, garlic powder, olive oil, and egg. Mix until well combined.
Form the mixture into 20-25 even-sized tots and transfer to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.

Serve with your choice of dipping sauce.
Enjoy!
