Broccoli Nuggets

(Recipe adapted from wholesomebabyfood.com)
16 oz package of frozen broccoli (florets if possible.)
1 cup of breadcrumbs (or 1/2 cup bread crumbs and 1/2 cup baby cereal)
1 1/2 cups grated Cheddar cheese
5-6 tablespoons of water or milk
5 tablespoons of olive oil
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
shakes of spices as you desire

Preheat oven to 375F
Thaw and drain broccoli (if using fresh, cleanse, cook then drain and chop)
Mix together remaining ingredients
Shape the mixture into nuggets, rolls or whatever takes your fancy.

Bake for 20-25 minutes on a lightly greased/oiled baking sheet.
Turn your broccoli-cheesies after 10 minutes of cooking time - these are done when golden and firm.


These are yummy. Justin totally loves them. I do however, make a few changes. I use fresh broccoli, steamed, instead of frozen. I add a hand full of shredded spinach. I also make the bread crumbs. (Throw a piece of wheat toast into the food processor- SO easy!)

*Clearly, I'm not photographer and these nuggets were already cut in half so they could be a lot cuter*
