About: I am a wife and a mother of two. I love reading, biking, kayaking and playing the recorder.

In this instructable, I will show you how to make baked cauliflower tots.

Step 1: Ingredients

1/4 cheddar cheese

1/4 c onion

1/4 c plain breadcrumbs

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pepper

1 tsp parsley

1 egg

1/4 tsp paprika

2 heads of cauliflower

Step 2: It's Grrrrrrrrate!

Grate the cheese- fresh grated cheese trumps bought grated cheese every. single. time.

Step 3: Break It Down

Break the florets off of the cauliflower.

Step 4: Boil & Drain

Add the florets to boiling water and cook for 5 minutes, then drain the florets.

Step 5: Time to Processor

Using a food processor on the pulse setting, cut the cauliflower until it's the consistency of rice.

Step 6: While It's Still Out on the Counter...

Use the processor to mince the onions too.

Step 7: Bring in Everything!

In a large bowl, blend in all of the ingredients.

Step 8: Shape It Up

Form 2 tbsp of the mixture into tater tot shapes and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 9: Bake!

Bake in an oven that's been preheated to 350° for 20 minutes.

Flip the tots over and cook for an additional 15 minutes.

Step 10: Enjoy!

These are great without any dip, but you could use marinara, ketchup or ranch!

If you make this, let me know what you think!
