Recipe Baked Cauli-Tots

Cheesy, crispy, so amazingly good that they'll easily replace those other tots as your family's favorite side dish.

BAKED CAULI TOTS

Ingredients

• 3 cups shredded cauliflower (about half of a head. See Note.)
• 4 oz. shredded sharp cheddar cheese (about 1 cup)
• 1 egg
• 1/4 cup cornmeal or bread crumbs or ground oats also work
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• a few grinds black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Spray a mini muffin tin with oil or cooking spray.
2. Place the shredded cauliflower in a kitchen towel and squeeze out the excess moisture.
3. Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl, and mix together thoroughly. I like to use a fork.
4. Using a spoon or scoop, divide the mixture between the muffin cups and press down firmly into the cups.
5. Bake at 400°F for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
6. Allow to cool slightly before running a knife around the edge to pop the tots out of the muffin tin.
7. Notes
8. You can use the shredding attachment for a food processor or a hand grater.
