Happy Food Trip Friday!
Our son is such a sucker for tater tots and he could have them every single day if he could. But with my goal of us eating healthier and for me serving less greasy food on the table, I don’t want him to have them everyday.
So I was so delighted when I saw the recipe for these zucchini tots. It’s like the healthier, non-greasy version of tater tots. And you can’t even taste the zucchini which is a big plus because our son is so picky when it comes to vegetables. Honestly, he hardly eats vegetables which I hope will change soon. I was also picky when I was young, so I have this feeling that his dislike for vegetables will change when he’s older.
These zucchini tots consist of only few ingredients which make it so easy and quick to prepare.
The recipe called for a muffin pan with twelve sections. I made used of the one that I have which only has six sections. Meaning, my tots are bigger (I guess) compared to what the recipe called for. But it still worked though. The tots still came out cooked.
It was really good! And like I said, you couldn’t tell if there was zucchini in there. Even the husband asked to be sure if I really used zucchini. And hey, we didn’t tell our son at all that there was zucchini there. We didn’t or he’s not going to eat it. Sneaky us, huh? I think you can’t blame us, can you? 😉
Have you tried preparing zucchini tots before? You can find the recipe for this recipe HERE if you want to give it a try and be sneaky like us. I think you will be happy to give your picky little eaters their vegetable serving for the day without them knowing.
Enjoy your weekend!
These look delicious. I need to try zucchini tots on my family. I have a very hard time getting my boys to eat healthy veggies.
Zucchini tots sound amazing! I love that crispy, tot texture and how you made it healthier with zucchini.
My kids all love tater tots!! This sounds like a great way to get them to eat some more veggies, I am sure they will love it.
The sound interesting! I really do like zucchini really thought about making them like a tater tot. I’m going to try to see if I like it which I’m betting I would because they do look really good.
I’ve never had or made zucchini before, I’m a bit interested. My kids are always asking for a snack, this might be a good one to test out on them and me.
I’ve always wanted to try these, but just never have. I had hoped to get a garden going this year, but we didn’t get moved into our new house earlier enough.
These are such a great idea! I have a pan that does little tiny muffins and can’t wait to try this recipe.
