97% fat-free cottage cheese gets pureed and then mixed with cooked cauliflower rice. The cheese binds the bits of veggies (which closely mimic the potato bits in traditional tater tots) while 20 minutes in a blazing hot convection oven crisps up the outside. No convection oven? Increase the temp to 230°C in a regular conventional oven and keep an eye on them after 15 minutes.

Ingredients

Cauliflower rice (100% cauliflower)

340 g

97% fat-free cottage cheese

220 g

Dried oregano

¼ tsp

Garlic powder or flakes

¼ tsp

Reduced sugar tomato sauce

2 tbs

Oil spray

1 x 3 second spray(s)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 220°C (preferably convection otherwise 230°C in a conventional oven). Line a baking tray with baking paper.
  2. Heat a large nonstick frying pan over medium-high (no need for oil spray). Add the cauliflower rice and cook for 3-5 minutes, until almost tender. Spread the cauliflower out onto a cutting board lined with paper towels or a clean kitchen towel to absorb excess moisture. Allow to cool completely.
  3. Meanwhile, process cottage cheese in a mini food processor until smooth. Combine cauliflower, cottage cheese, ½ teaspoon salt, oregano and garlic powder in a medium bowl. Shape level tablespoonfuls of the cauliflower mixture into a tot and place onto prepared baking tray. Lightly spray tots with oil.
  4. Bake tots for 15-20 minutes, until browned. Serve with tomato sauce.
