Parmesan "Tater Tots"
Many websites will tell you cauliflower is a great sub for potatoes. Well, I have to strongly disagree but only because of taste. The texture is great and you can truly make many of your favorite potato recipes with cauliflower. But to me, the flavor is entirely different. That being said, as long as you're not expecting potatoes, these little tots will not disappoint! I was really impressed by them! I made one full recipe which turned out to be about 20 tots so I froze what I didn't eat tonight (I'm only cooking for me). Perfect for a quick meal another time! If you decide to try them, let me know what you think!
