Cauli-Tots
The keto or LCHF version of potato gems, or tater tots depending on where you live in the world. LOVE them, and these are just as good. Dare I say it?
I always did secretly love tater-tots—those deep-fried, grated potato gems. These are a bit of a fiddle, I don't mind warning you. But the end result is totally worth it. Get the kids onto it. They won't mind a bit of hard work to get the not quite as naughty end result in their little tums. These are the perfect low carb or dare I say keto version that you can tell yourself are the alternative that means you can eat twice as many! Food positivity people...it's real!
Serve with Marinara Sauce, Ranch Dressing or other sauce of choice.
