Veggies Nuggets


So, after looking Weelicious video I couldn't wait to make these for the hubs (and of course practice for the kids we will have later ... later .... later), so I gathered all my stuff and got to work on them. They are really nice, they are healthy, a good alternative, beautiful, and best of all, homemade! So, give them a try and let me know how it goes =)
I used:

  • 2 large potatoes, cubed
  • 2 carrots, cubed
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 whisked eggs
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (Italian)
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • cookie cutters



Cut potatoes in cubes.


Place potatoes peeled and carrots in boiling water for 20 minutes. 



Chop broccoli florets... 



...and in last 5 minutes of cooking time add them to boiling water.


In a food processor add carrots and broccoli. 



Pulse until you reach tiny pieces.


Mash potatoes a little.




Add veggies mix to mashed potatoes.


Add salt and garlic powder.


Mix with spatula.


Spread in sheet tray to be 1/2“ thick. I used several parchment papers and some plates.




Place 30 minutes – 1hr in freezer.




Cut with cookie cutters.


Pass through flour, eggs and breadcrumbs. You can freeze them in this step.





Place in baking sheet covered in parchment paper.



Broil for 2 minutes on each side.



And enjoy with BBQ sauce, organic ketchup, mustard, whatever you prefer!
