Description

Explore a delicious twist on broccoli with our Low Carb Crispy Broccoli Cheese Rounds. This easy-to-make recipe combines finely chopped broccoli florets with shredded cheddar and Parmesan cheeses, seasoned with garlic and onion powders for a flavorful, crispy snack or side dish.


Ingredients

2 cups broccoli florets, finely chopped

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 large egg

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

Cooking spray or olive oil


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with cooking spray.
  2. Prepare Broccoli: Steam or blanch the chopped broccoli florets until tender (about 3-4 minutes). Drain well and pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  3. Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine broccoli, cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  4. Form Rounds: Scoop 1-2 tablespoons of the mixture and shape into small rounds or patties. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake: Lightly spray or brush the rounds with cooking spray or olive oil. Bake for 15-18 minutes until edges are golden and crispy.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving warm as a snack or side dish.

Notes

Ensure broccoli is well-drained to achieve crispy rounds.

Customize with additional herbs like paprika or thyme for added flavor.
