Broccoli Tots

This recipe is much like the zucchini tots recipe I posted previously but it is so delicious you can add any veggie and it will be a new favorite.

Ingredients:
1 bunch broccoli cut into equal sized florets, around 3-4 cups
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1/3 cup chopped shallots
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1 T parsley, chopped
2 eggs
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Place broccoli in a sauce pan and add about an inch of water. Bring to a boil and cook until broccoli is easily pierced. Drain and set aside to cool.
Finely chop the broccoli.
In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients and season with salt and pepper. Stir until well mixed.
Spray a muffin tin(I used mini muffins) and spoon mixture into each spot, pressing down as you do.
Bake for 18-20 minutes.
