I do not have a picky eating toddler! THANK YOU GOD!! Except, well, for when I do...

There are days when bread, or yogurt, or whatever is the ONLY thing she'll eat. For days like those, I'm glad I have tricks like these!!

I love cleaning up less than healthy foods, especially when they are so toddler friendly!!

Cauliflower Tots

Ingredients
2 cups cauliflower florets
1 large egg
½ cup onion, minced
¼ cup bell pepper, minced (optional)
½ cup cheddar cheese, shredded
¼ cup Parmesan cheese
¼ cup almond meal
¼ cup minced parsley (optional)
salt and pepper to taste
cooking spray or oil

Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray a nonstick cookie sheet with cooking spray or lightly grease with oil. Set aside.
Steam cauliflower in hot water for 3-5 minutes or until nice and soft, drain and chop with a knife or pulse in the food processor ( just a few seconds.)
In a medium bowl, combine all of the ingredients and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Spoon about 1 tablespoon of mixture in your hands and roll into small oval shaped tots.
Place on the cookie sheet ½ inch apart and bake for about 20 minutes, turning halfway through cooking until golden.


Do your littles have a favorite food? Let me know and I"ll see if I can make it just a little more good for you!!
