Ingredients

2 cups cauliflower florets 1 large egg 1/4 cup red bell pepper, chopped 1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella or shredded cheddar cheese 1/8 cup Parmesan cheese, grated 1/4 cup Panko breadcrumbs ( or 4C Gluten-Free Crumbs) Kosher salt and black pepper to taste (about a dash of each) 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped Cooking spray - See more at: http://simmerandboil.cookinglight.com/2015/03/04/cheesy-cauliflower-tots/#sthash.EA1gAeZU.dpuf

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 375° and spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. While the oven is heating, steam cauliflower until fork-tender. Once the cauliflower is steamed, pulse in a food processor until coarsely grated, about 5 pulses. Step 2: Combine all of the ingredients, and stir together in a large mixing bowl. Because the mixture doesn’t expand in the oven, you can form the tots into any shape you like. I chose oval, for a more traditional look, but you could also form into balls, squares, or even hearts for a fun twist. Form the mixture into desired shape, and place tots on the baking sheet one at a time. Step 3: Bake for 10 minutes, then flip the tots over. Bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
