Provided by Danae Halliday

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 heaping cups cauliflower florets
2 egg whites
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/3 cup shredded part skim mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup marinara sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400° F., line a baking sheet with foil and spray it generously with cooking spray.
  • Steam the cauliflower florets in a covered pot with a little bit of water for 4-5 minutes. They should be tender, but not mushy. Remove the cauliflower from the pot, drain, and blot dry with paper towel.
  • Add the steamed cauliflower to a food processor and pulse until it's about the size of rice or couscous. If you don't have a food processor chop it finely with a knife.
  • Add the chopped cauliflower to a large bowl along with all the other ingredients except the marinara sauce. Stir everything together until combined then scoop out about a tablespoon of the mixture and form into small ovals.
  • Place the cauliflower bites onto the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray the tops of them with a little cooking spray. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 18-20 minutes or until they are golden. Serve with marinara sauce for dipping.
