My husbands exact words after his first bite Oh my god Betty this is a fantastic recipe
These Yellow Squash Tots are a fantastic way to enjoy veggies! They’re cheesy, crunchy, and make a great addition to lunchboxes or party platters.
Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Grated yellow squash | 2 cups |
| Egg | 1 |
| Shredded cheddar cheese | 1/2 cup |
| Breadcrumbs | 1/4 cup |
| Garlic powder | 1/4 tsp |
| Salt | To taste |
| Pepper | To taste |
| Chopped parsley | Optional, for garnish |
Instructions:
- Prep Oven and Squash: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Grate the yellow squash, then use a clean kitchen towel to firmly squeeze out any excess liquid. This step is crucial for crispy tots!
- Mix Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the squeezed grated squash, egg, shredded cheddar cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix everything until it’s well combined.
- Shape and Arrange: Use your hands or a spoon to shape the mixture into small, tot-sized pieces, about 1 inch in diameter. Arrange them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tots are golden brown and crispy.
- Serve: Serve the yellow squash tots hot, with a side of yogurt-based dip or ranch dressing. Garnish with chopped parsley if you like.
