The ingredients for Cauliflower "Tator" Tots are:

1 12 oz bag of frozen cauliflower
1/3 cup of grated parmesan cheese
dash of salt
dash of pepper
dash of onion powder

Here is how you make Cauliflower "Tator" Tots:

Cook cauliflower, covered, in microwave for 6 minutes. Pour off water and let stand until cool.Process well in a food processor, (or rice using other means). I?ve found the smoother texture holds together better than the more coarse texture. As you form cauliflower into its shape, squeeze, working any excess water from the vegetable. Roll into approx. 1.5″ balls and drop into Parmesan. Form into tots by flattening the tops. If the mixture is still too moist and falls apart, work a little of the Parmesan into the tot, and then roll the formed tots into the Parm once again to coat.Place tots on a greased cookie sheet and freeze for 30 minutes prior to baking to help tots hold their shape. At this point it?s good to note that you can freeze them longer or make these ahead of time. Simply place in a freezer bag after the initial chilling period and store for up to a month.To bake: Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake for 10 minutes, rotating tots every five minutes or so for even browning.Makes about 30 tots.
