Ingredients

  • 3 cups of broccoli florets
  • 2 T flaxseed meal mixed with 6 T hot water
  • 1/2 cup nutritional yeast flakes
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 T quinoa or chickpea flour
  • 1 tsp miso paste
  • 1-2 T hummus

Instructions

  • Steam broccoli in a steamer basket for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk together flaxseed meal and water in a mug or small bowl. Set this aside.
  • When the broccoli is done, allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes before chopping into bite-size pieces.
  • In a mixing bowl, add the remaining ingredients, along with the flaxseed meal mixture (sometimes called a flax egg). In adding hummus, start with one tablespoon. Stir together til it forms a dough. Add more hummus if it seems a little dry.
  • Form into tater tots or balls. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Bake for 18-20 minutes in a 400 degree preheated oven. Flip them half way through. Cool for 15-20 minutes before serving.
