It also makes the perfect weeknight meal because you only need 30 minutes and one pan! There is nothing better than an easy, delicious, and filling meal that also has easy clean up.

Cauliflower Tots https://mnketomom.com/2018/08/03/cauliflower-tots/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=cauliflower-tots https://mnketomom.com/2018/08/03/cauliflower-tots/#comments Fri, 03 Aug 2018 19:05:30 +0000 https://mnketomom.com/?p=142 ]]> Tator tots are a midwest must have, but potatoes are a keto no-go. I couldn’t contain my excitement when I came across this recipe.  With a few tweaks, it was perfect.  They are a great side dish for your bunless burger.

I recommend making extra as they are great to freeze! Once baked and cooled, store in a ziplock bag.  Using an air fryer: cook at 350* for 5 mins or until warmed through.  Great for easy weeknight meals for the kids especially when pared with my kid approved chicken nuggets.

Enjoy!

Cauliflower Tots

Ingredients:

  • 1 bag cauliflower rice (Highly recommend the steam in the bag kind to save time and sanity!)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup parmesan
  • 1-2 Tbsp Trader Joe’s onion salt
  • dash of cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 2 Tbsp butter

Directions:

    1. Preheat oven to 450º F.  If convection is an option, set convection bake 425º F. I find that by using convection I get better browning.
    2. Cook cauliflower rice according to package instructions.
    3. Strain out extra water. I love using my Ellie’s Best Nut Milk Bag to do this! You can get yours HERE and use code MNKetoMom for 10% off.
    4. Mix together: eggs, onion salt, parmesan, cayenne, and butter in a bowl.  This helps to absorb some of the liquid of the eggs and helps the tots keep their shape.
    5. Once cauliflower has finished, mix it into the egg mixture.
    6. Using a cookie scoop, divide up the mixture into tots on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or silicon liners.
    7. Bake for 15-20 or until the outside has turned to a golden brown.
