Ingredients

frozen riced cauliflower, 12oz bag
½ cup grated parmesan
½ cup shredded cheddar
1 egg, lightly beaten
½ cup panko or crumbed pork rinds
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
Pinch of Cayenne pepper or paprika
Pinch of salt and pepper

Recipe

Microwave bag of cauliflower rice for 3 minutes or until the bags are lukewarm to the touch. Cut the corners and squeeze the bags to drain an excess water. Transfer to a paper towel or kitchen cloth and pat dry before adding to a large bowl.
Add the spices, shredded cheese, and eggs to the cauliflower rice, stirring everything together.
Add the breadcrumbs or pork rinds (crushed) to the rice mixture, folding everything together. Don’t overmix or the cauliflower rice may turn mashed.
Form a tater tot shape with your hands. Or use a tablespoon or small ice cream scooper to form each tot. This should make around 20 tots or so.
Preheat air fryer to 400° to prevent sticking. Then spray the tray and air fry the tots for 3 minutes at 400°. Pull the basket out, turn tots over, and air fry for 3 more minutes.
