Broccoli Cheese Bites

Broccoli Cheese Bites

INGREDIENTS:

• 16 ounces cooked broccoli
• 1 cup of italian bread crumbs
• 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese
• 3 eggs
• salt, pepper and garlic to taste

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Thaw 16 ounces of broccoli (or cook fresh broccoli until soft), and chop into small pieces. Combine your broccoli, 1 cup of Italian bread crumbs, 1-2 cups of cheese, 3 eggs, and the seasoning of your choice (I used about half a teaspoon of garlic salt) into a large bowl.
2. Mix together well with a spoon, or just go for it and use your hands.
3. Create small patties (the smaller, the crispier they get) and place them on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
4. Bake in the oven at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes (depending on how large you make your patties), and flip half way through.
5. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Serve with ranch or your favorite dipping sauce.
