Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups (270 g) broccoli florets, steamed and finely chopped
  • 2 large eggs

  • 1/4 cup (25 g) grated Parmesan
  • 1/2 cup (55 g) breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup (40 g) finely diced onion
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper
  • Ranch or honey mustard, for dipping

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment.
  2. Steam the broccoli 3-4 minutes, drain, pat dry and chop finely.
  3. Mix the broccoli with the eggs, cheddar, Parmesan, breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, salt and pepper.
  4. Form into tablespoon-sized balls or small patties and place on the baking sheet.

Notes

Frozen broccoli works too; thaw and pat very dry before chopping.
