Broccoli Bites image

Delicious bits of broccoli are drenched in a cheese mixture and fried. When our local restaurant stopped serving their Broccoli Bites, we were devastated. So I tried to duplicate them at home one night. It was funny to note that soon after, they started carrying them again here.

These broccoli bites were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time.

I'm not a big fan of broccoli, but these bites were surprisingly good. I'll definitely be making them again.

I made these broccoli bites with a few modifications. I used almond flour instead of bread crumbs and added a bit of garlic powder. They were delicious!

I followed the recipe exactly and the broccoli bites turned out perfectly. They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

These broccoli bites were a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.

I made these broccoli bites for my kids and they gobbled them up. They're a great way to get them to eat their vegetables.
