Bacon & Cheese Cauliflower Tots

Steam cauliflower for 10–12 minutes. Once cooked, set aside to completely cool off to reduce moisture.

Pile all the slices of bacon on top of each other to make it easy to cut them into ½-inch pieces. Transfer bacon pieces to a hot skillet and cook until browned (about 10 minutes).

When cauliflower has cooled, add it to the food processor and work it until cauliflower has a grain-like texture. Transfer the cauliflower to a large glass bowl. Add remaining ingredients and fold until uniform.

Scoop up about ½ tablespoon of the cauliflower mix into your hands to form into tots. Add cauliflower tots about 1 inch apart on a greased baking sheet. You will probably need two medium size baking sheets, or one large and one small. This recipe makes about 40 cauliflower tots.

Bake at 375ºF for 15 minutes. Flip them and bake for an additional 12–15 minutes.

Serve hot or warm with ketchup or hot sauce.
