Ingredients
- ½ lb fresh broccoli
- ½ lb fresh cauliflower
- ½ red bell pepper finely chopped
- 1 medium onion chopped
- 2 eggs
- ½ teaspoon Lawry's salt
- 1 pinch of black pepper
- 2 tablespoon flax seeds ground
- 3 tablespoon avocado oil
Instructions
- Place the washed cauliflower and broccoli florets into your food processor and pulse it until your veggies are chopped up into small pieces. Rice size is great, but a few larger pieces will give your fritters more texture. Make sure you don't puree your vegetables.
- Steam chopped veggies for 5 minutes.
- Chop and saute the onion in 1 tablespoon of oil (about 5 – 7 minutes).
- Let both the riced veggies and sauteed onion cool for about 15 minutes.
- Chop the red bell pepper as small as you can and add it to the veggies.
- Add the 2 eggs, salt, and black pepper to the veggie mixture until well incorporated
- Grind the flax seeds and fold the flax seed meal into the mixture.
- Brush some oil in your cooking pan and turn the heat on.
- Use a large ice cream scoop of mixture for each fritter. Drop it in the heated pan, then flatten/shape your patties with the back of a spoon.
- Cover and let them cook on medium for about 5 minutes (check about halfway through to make sure your fire is not too hot).
- Flip them over and let cook for 3 to 4 more minutes.
- Set the fritters on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
- Enjoy!
