Tips:

  • Fresh is best: Use fresh broccoli florets for the best flavor and texture.
  • Shred your own cheese: Pre-shredded cheese contains additives that can make the patties less flavorful and more difficult to hold together.
  • Don't overcook the rice: The rice should be cooked through but still have a slight bite to it.
  • Let the patties cool slightly before serving: This will help them hold their shape better.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce: These patties are great with ranch dressing, ketchup, or even honey mustard.

Conclusion:

These cheesy broccoli and brown rice patties are a delicious and healthy way to use up leftover rice. They're easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give these patties a try!
