Ingredients

  • 16 oz frozen chopped broccoli thawed & drained
  • 1 cup plain bread crumbs
  • 3 eggs lightly beaten
  • 6 slices crisp-cooked bacon diced
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Form patties by making a ball about the size of a golf ball; flatten slightly and place on prepared baking sheet. TIP: An ice cream scoop makes this easy and gives the right sized portion.
  • Bake at 375 degrees F for 20 minutes. Turn patties and continue to cook for an additional 10 minutes or until nicely browned.
  • Makes about 16 patties.
