Ingredients
1
pound
broccoli florets
1
cup
breadcrumbs
½
teaspoon
kosher salt
½
teaspoon
black pepper
½
cups
grated cheddar cheese

Instructions
Steam broccoli until it’s tender, but still a bit crisp. Rinse with cold water.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. and line a few baking sheets with parchment paper.
Pulse broccoli in a food processor until they are finely chopped. In a large bowl, stir broccoli together with other ingredients.
Make heaping spoonful-sized nuggets out of the mixture and place them on baking sheets. Press them down a bit to flatten.
Bake nuggets for 25 minutes, flipping once after 15 minutes.
Serve nuggets while warm or store in an airtight container for 5-7 days. You can also freeze them once they are cooled.
