Does your kid like tater tots? Try making these zucchini parmesan tots, hopefully they will be a hit! They are super delicious, and give a healthy dose of zucchini!

My toddler is obsessed with tater tots. He wants them for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I wanted to make a healthier version, and knew zucchini would be a perfect way to make that happen! With just 5 ingredients you can make these delicious, healthier version of tater tots! I love to add these as a side with chicken nuggets (another one of my toddlers favorites)

What You Will Need to make these Zucchini Parmesan Tots

1. Medium sized zucchini- you can either peel the skin off, or leave it on (I peeled it to make the tots less of a green color.)
2. Panko bread crumbs
3. Parmesan cheese-the cheese binds the tots together and gives delicious flavor.
4. 1 egg-to bind the tots
5. Garlic powder-I love how this makes the tots taste

Substitutions

1. Egg-use a store bought egg replacer, or 1 flax egg.

Process

1. Preheat oven to 400 F.
2. Grate the zucchini. I used a food processor to do this. You can either leave the skin on, or peel it before.
3. Use a paper towel to squeeze the liquid out of the zucchini. Do this several times.
4. To a large bowl, add all the ingredients. Stir together.
5. Form the mixture into tots.
6. Put the tots on a parchment lined baking sheet. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until the tots start to brown.

Storage

You can keep in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 days. You can also freeze for up to 2 months!

Notes

-I like the grate the zucchini first, because it has less of a green color that way. You definitely don’t have to grate, you can leave the skin on!

-Make sure to squeeze the liquid out of the zucchini. You will probably need to squeeze it out with a paper towel 3-4 times.

-Serve with any dipping sauce you choose!
