2 Cups frozen broccoli
1 Cup frozen cauliflower
1 Cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 Cup cooking water from vegetables
2/3 Cup flour
1/2 Cup breadcrumbs (plus more for breading)
Salt/pepper/garlic powder to taste
A little oil
(These measurements are really approximations- you may find that you'll need to add a little more flour, breadcrumbs, etc. once you get mixing everything together)
Put veggies in a pot and cover with water.
Cook on medium heat until tender.
Scoop out with a slotted spoon and put into a mixing bowl.
Using a hand mixer or potato masher (or a food processor would be great if you have one) mix and mash the veggies together.
Stir in cheese and seasoning.
Gradually add cooking water and flour/breadcrumbs until the desired consistency is achieved. Chill the mixture in the fridge to allow it to be easier to work with.
Prepare a skillet over medium heat with just enough oil (canola, vegetable, whatever) to cover the bottom.
Using your hands, form patties with the chilled mixture.
Dip into breadcrumbs.
Place the nuggets into the hot pan.
Cook each side for 3 minutes or until lightly browned.
Drain on paper towel and cool on wire racks.
Mmmmmmm... Soooo good! The best part is that you'll be able to make bunches w/ this recipe, so you'll have some to freeze.
