Baked Broccoli and Cauliflower Tots
Packed with broccoli and cauliflower, these homemade tots are a great way to sneak in extra veggies under the radar.
The trick to getting that classic tot shape is to first roll each spoonful of the uncooked mixture into a ball, then press into the cylindrical shape.
