Oh. My. Goodness. These are awesome!!!! I LOVE that these are healthy. I LOVE that these taste good. and I LOVE that my toddler LOVED them and thought they were "fries" and ate a lot of them! Super awesome! Great alternative for those fried fries eh?!
I made a leap and doubled the recipe below and it made about 30 mini tots :)
1 cup zucchini, grated
1 egg
1/4 yellow onion, diced
1/4 cup cheese (cheddar or Parmesan work the best)
1/4 cup bread crumbs - I used Italian style
Salt and Pepper
Preheat oven to 400F. Spray a mini-muffin tin with non-stick spray, set aside. Grate the zucchini and then place in a dish towel to squeeze out the excess water- like when using frozen spinach; if you skip this part, the middle of the zucchini tots will be really soggy while the outside gets crispy and no one wants that. In a bowl combine, the egg, onion, cheese, bread crumbs, zucchini, salt and pepper. Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, fill the muffin cups to the top. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the top is browned and set.
