\"Baked<\/p>\n

Tots made with cauliflower and it’s baked, a healthy snack.<\/p>\n

I mostly make Indo-Chinese dishes with cauliflower, and most of the recipes call for frying cauliflower. Last time, I tried not to fry cauliflower and ended up making an Indo Chinese cauliflower stir fry by boiling the cauliflower, tasted delicious. Here is the recipe<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The other day, I made this tots with cauliflower and baked them. Turned out to be a perfect crunchy snack and quite healthy too.<\/p>\n

I even made pita wraps with these tots: placed a few tots on a pita bread, added greens,\u00a0hummus and drizzled with salad dressing and wrapped them, this was my lunch. You can also make sandwiches with these tots. So many options and \u00a0everything tastes delish.<\/p>\n
