cheesy roasted broccoli patties

the love for broccoli in my house is...divided. me and my girls will steam some broccoli, throw a little butter/salt on it them and eat a big o' HUGE bowl of it, content as can be. my boys? not so much. when the broccoli comes out of the fridge, they take off running in the other direction. at best, i can cut it up into little itsy bitsy pieces and stir it into some rice and my eldest son with eat it. but i had a plan. you can't mess with momma. i made these delicious patties with cheese and panko breadcrumbs for some crunch. then i roasted the mess out of them until they were browned and crunchy, yet cheesy in the middle. roasting the broccoli made it taste nutty and extra good. the result? no division now exists in the smith household! united we stand! 🙂
ingredients:
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil -
- 2 cloves garlic - minced
- 1/2 onion - chopped
- 1 (12 ounce) bag frozen broccoli - defrosted
- 3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs -
- 1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese -
- 1/3 cup parmesan cheese -
- 2 eggs - beaten
- salt/pepper -
instructions:
- preheat the oven to 400 degrees. lightly grease a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.
- heat the oil in a small pan over medium heat. add in the garlic and onions. season with salt/pepper to taste. saute until onions and garlic are tender. set aside to cool.
- add the broccoli to a kitchen towel. wrap the towel around the broccoli and squeeze out the extra moisture. pour the drained broccoli into a large bowl.
- to the same bowl, add the panko, the cooled onion/garlic mixture, the cheeses, eggs, and salt/pepper to taste (i used 1/2 teaspoon of salt).
- mix together and form into patties. place on the prepared baking sheet.
- bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. flip and bake for another 15 minutes or until browned and crispy.

Turned out great-thanks for the awesome recipe-I’ll def make it again soon!
We may have met by chance…but we become friends by choice.
I am a beginner cook and I was wondering, what would you serve these with?
steak and salad with them. i treated them like a regular side of broccoli. please let me know if you try them and what you decided to serve alongside. 🙂

If this site would like me to remove it or set it to private I certainly will. When I first found it it was someone’s post on Facebook with no reference to this site.

Just a note — you are amazingly good at responding to each post, so suspect you might want to know that you missed one from Lauren on 03/24. I noticed because I read all the comments, and am hoping to try out a few of the suggested changes at some time, too.
measured anything and eyeballed everything. i am glad that you liked the taste of the mixture. please let me know when you try it again! 🙂

however, i’m pretty sure in this neighbourhood it will cost more. i did some quick math and for me, it will cost at least twice this price. oh well, at least we have free health care 🙂
in the ingredients you are using a in a recipe, and it calculates it out for you. please let me know if you try them. 🙂
Both were good, but I enjoyed them with the o&g more.
The baby liked the ones without.
Great recipe, although I didn’t make the whole bag of broccoli & added maybe 1/4 cup of extra parm chz because that was the end of the bottle, I left about 1/4 the bag out for later use, turned out great!! This will certainly be a staple in my family’s meals from now on. Baked and better for us than fries, thx!

Just wasn’t sure what to eat them with. Would you consider them as a side dish?

I did change it up a bit, by using pepperjack instead of sharp. (because that’s what I had on hand, lol)
