Cauliflower Patties


Cauliflower Patties
Do you remember the South Beach Diet and the use of mashed cauliflower replacing potatoes due to the low glycemic index of the cauliflower?  This is another recipe I found on the internet that I want to try.
***
Ingredients:
1 head cauliflower
2 large eggs or 1 whole egg + 1 egg white
1/2 c cheddar cheese, grated
1/2 c Panko bread crumbs (regular or gluten free- You can use crushed pork rinds or low carb substitute)
2 cloves of finely diced garlic
1 finely diced red onion
seasonings of your choice, salt and pepper to taste.

                                                  *

Directions:
Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celcius or 375 Farenheit

Cut cauliflower into florets & cook in boiling water or microwave until tender about 10 minutes. Drain. Mash the cauliflower while still warm. Stir cheese, eggs, bread crumbs, garlic, onion and seasoning to taste.

Grease a baking tray then form the cauliflower mixture into patties about 3 inches across. Bake until golden brown & set, about 15 - 20 minutes.
