Ingredients
- 12 oz bag Frozen Cauliflower Rice or 350g fresh, riced cauliflower
- 1 cup (112g) Shredded Parmesan
- 1 cup(112g) Shredded Mozzarella
- 1 large Egg
- 2 1/2 servings (75g) Pretzels
- 1/2 scoop (16g) unflavored protein powder or bread crumbs
- 2 tsp (10g) Minced Garlic
Toppings
- 1/2 cup (56g) Cheddar Cheese
- 1 cup chili
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
If using frozen cauliflower rice, heat the rice in the microwave as instructed or set it out to thaw ahead of time.
-
To remove remaining moisture, add cauliflower rice to a pan over medium-high heat for 3-5 minutes or wrap it in a towel and squeeze the moisture out by hand.
-
Add pretzels to a food processor, blender, or Ziploc bag. Blend into a fine flour-like texture.
-
Add pretzel flour and remaining ingredients to a large mixing bowl. Add the cooled cauliflower rice as well. Stir until evenly mixed.
-
Form tots to desired size by hand. Squeeze each tot with quite a bit of force to form solid tots that don’t fall apart in the process of cooking and flipping.
-
Bake for 10 minutes before flipping each tot and cooking for 10 additional minutes.
-
After the tots are finished, top with chili and cheddar cheese before popping them back in the oven for 2-3 minutes or until the cheese has melted.
