COOK TIME: 15-30 MINS (DEPENDS ON IF YOU’RE USING AN AIR FRYER OR OVEN)
TOTAL TIME: 25 MINS
INGREDIENTS
1 lb organic ground chicken (I like to use a mix of white and dark for my balls, if it's just breast meat they tend to dry out a bit)
1 egg
1 cup of cauliflower steamed. Leave over a small amount of pot water for blending
3/4 cup spinach chopped (optional)
2 pieces of @foodforlifebaking Ezekiel bread (you can also use panko or breadcrumbs of choice, read ingredients, some companies (like Progresso) add high fructose corn syrup
Salt, pepper
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 375.
Steam cauliflower until soft (don't over steam, you don't want to cook out all of the nutrients.
While cauliflower is steaming blend Ezekiel bread into crumbs, transfer to a large bowl.
Combine chicken, crumbs, egg, chopped spinach, salt, Italian seasoning.
When cauliflower is soft, add to blender with a splash of pot water and blend until creamy consistency (not watery!).
Add pureed cauliflower to the bowl and incorporate.
Make into balls and place in air fryer at 370 for 12-15 minutes (or oven bake at 375 for 25-30 minutes).
