- 1 egg
- ⅓ cup Panko bread crumbs gluten-free or regular
- 1 cup riced broccoli fresh
- ⅓ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt more to taste
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- Caesar or ranch dressing
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350 F. Line and grease a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients.
- With your hands or a meatball scooper, form 20 - 25 golf ball-sized meatballs.
