Broccoli Bites "Green Biscuits"

Healthy Broccoli Bites

Found these gems! I need to get Veggies into Sam! He wrinkles his nose and says "No!" when we try.
A little protein and dairy and whole grains too. Not bad eh? Well Sammy got through one alright. Me too. But our little neighbor girl who's one and I hear can be super picky (who isn't at that age!) blasted through 3.5. Mission accomplished, I know what age to start 'em.

2 cups uncooked raw broccoli
1 cup oatmeal (uncooked)
1 1/2 cups shredded cheese
3 eggs
Half a can of diced, cooked chicken (optional)

In a food processor, mix/chop the oatmeal until it is fine, almost like flour. Add the broccoli, and continue to chop. Add in the eggs
 and chicken, and pulse. Pour the mixture into a medium-sized bowl, add the cheese and stir. Form into one inch balls and place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper (or sprayed with cooking spray).


Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes or until slightly browned on the bottom.
