Low Carb Gluten-Free Cauliflower Fritters



These cauliflower fritters are so delicious, as well as grain free for those of you who are gluten sensitive or are just staying away from grains. For people who don't particularly like vegetables or have trouble fitting them into their diet, or for people who are on low carb diets for some days of the week like myself, this is a great recipe! Simple, fast and easy.

Ingredients:
1 head cauliflower
½ cup cheese of choice (cheddar works well)
½ cup almond flour
2 eggs
Salt to taste
Olive oil


Directions:
Steam the cauliflower until tender enough to mash up (it took me about 10 minutes). In a large mixing bowl mash up the steamed cauliflower and let it cool for 2-3 minutes. Add in the eggs, cheese, almond flour and salt, mix until the ingredients are incorporated well (so you can’t see the separate ingredients anymore). Place about a tablespoon or so of olive oil in a frying pan on medium-low heat. Form the cauliflower mixture into “patties” and place them in the frying pan for about 2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.


Eating vegetables does not have to be boring and monotonous! Help yourself stick to your diet by adding variety to it!
