CHEESY CAULIFLOWER PANCAKES
1 head cauliflower (or a 16 oz bag of frozen cauliflower)
2 large eggs
½- ¾ cup shredded Cheddar cheese (I love cheese, so use closer to ¾ cup)
¼ cup diced green onions
½-1 cup bread crumbs (I usually need closer to 1 cup)
½ tsp Cayenne pepper (more of less to taste)
salt
olive oil
light Sour cream (optional) Cut the cauliflower into florets and steam until tender, about 10 minutes.
Drain and mash the cauliflower while it is still warm.
Add the cheese, eggs, green onions, bread crumbs, cayenne pepper & salt to taste to the mashed cauliflower.
Coat the bottom of a skillet with olive oil over medium-high heat.
Form the cauliflower mixture into patties about 3 inches across and place into the hot pan.
Cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side.
Enjoy with some light sour cream!
