Healthy snack - Zucchini tots

Healthy snacks to have whilst watching football is a challenge, but I found this substitute for potato tots from Gina Homolka - Skinnytaste an absolute winner.  Even number 2 son who has been eating potatoes in any form since babyhood couldn't stop at one.  You could even add a little finely shredded chilli for a hint of heat.


Ingredients

1 cup packed grated zucchini (grate, then place in a sieve and squeeze as much liquid out as possible)
1 egg
1/4 cup grated onion
1/4 cup grated tasty cheese
1/3 cup dry breadcrumbs
Salt and Pepper
Oil spray

Method

Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celsius
Spray an oven tray lightly with oil
Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix to combine.
Take 1 tablespoon of mixture and form an oval shape in your hand.
Place on greased oven tray and place in the oven for 15 - 18 minutes.
Turn half way through.
Remove when golden.
5 tots are approx. 108 calories.

Serve with salsa or sweet chilli sauce.
