    Strain and place florets directly into an ice bath until cool. Strain again when cool and place florets into the bowl of a food processor and pulse until the cauliflower resembles rice. Process the florets in batches to get an even texture.

    Place cauliflower rice on a double layer of cheesecloth and twist it up into a ball. Squeeze excess water (make sure you remove as much as possible) and transfer cauliflower rice to a large bowl.

    Add remaining ingredients and mix to combine. If mixture seems too wet or dry, adjust with an additional egg or more panko breadcrumbs until the mixture stays together.

    • 2 eggs

    • 1/2 Cup panko breadcrumbs

    • 3/4 Cup cheddar cheese

    • 1/4 Cup Parmesan cheese

    • 1/2 Tablespoon onion powder

    • 1 Teaspoon Kosher salt

    Form the cauliflower mixture into desired shape and place on a sheet tray. Transfer the sheet tray to the fridge and let the tots rest for 30 minutes (this will help them keep their shape and stay together).

    When ready to cook, set Traeger temperature to 375℉ and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes.
