Directions

1. 1
   {"0":"1. Preheat oven to 400F. Spray a mini-muffin tin with non-stick spray, set aside.","1":"2. Grate the zucchini and then place in a dish towel to squeeze out the excess water- like when using frozen spinach; if you skip this part, the middle of the zucchini tots will be really soggy while the outside gets crispy and no one wants that.","2":"3. In a bowl combine, the egg, onion, cheese, bread crumbs, zucchini, salt and pepper.","3":"4. Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, fill the muffin cups to the top.

You can add fresh herbs, use a different (or even dairy free) cheese, keep the skins on or peel the zucchini, add a bit of heat with red pepper flakes ,or even mix in bacon which on reader did.","9":">No mini muffin tin? Some have just placed the mixture onto a baking sheet which has worked okay, but you can use a regular muffin tin. If using a regular muffin tin, fill the mixture to 1\/2 full or a little less and press down using your fingers or a tbsp measure. Bake for 18-22 minutes and broil to get the tops crispy.","10":">Salt: Salt helps draw out the moisture in foods which can help in this recipe.
