Ingredients

12 oz broccoli - cut into small florets
2 cloves garlic - minced
2 scallions - chopped
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 cup Hellmann's Mayonnaise
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 egg
6 oz cheddar cheese

Instructions

Blanch the broccoli in boiling water and cook for 2 minutes, until slightly softened. Drain and finely chop the broccoli.
Place the broccoli in a medium bowl with the remaining ingredients and mix to combine. Refrigerate for 20 - 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400º F and spray a sheet pan with cooking spray.
Use a small scoop or your hands to form 1-inch round tots. Place the tots on the prepared sheet pan and bake for 12 - 15 minutes, until golden. Flip the tots and cook an additional 12 -15 minutes on the other side, until golden.
Serve immediate with ranch dressing or your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy!

Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
