Baby Finger Food - Broccoli And Cheddar Nuggets - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) package frozen broccoli, cooked, drained and chopped
1 cup seasoned bread crumbs (I used store bought crumbs but you could probably use homemade)
1 1/2 cups real cheddar cheese, shredded (avoid using processed cheese food)
3 large eggs (check with your pediatrician before feeding eggs to a baby under 1 year or see note at end of recipe) or 5 egg yolks (check with your pediatrician before feeding eggs to a baby under 1 year or see note at end of recipe)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375.
Lightly coat a baking sheet with olive oil and set aside.
Combine all remaining ingredients and mix well.
Before mixing, add seasonings if you like - garlic powder, pepper, basil & oregano for example.
Shape mixture into nuggets or fun shapes such as squares or squigglies etc.and place on baking tray.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, turning nuggets over after 15 minutes. Serve warm.
Be sure to crumble these if your baby needs.
(Note: If your baby cannot have eggs, you can substitute a jar of vegetable puree. Carrot works well).
These may also be frozen for up to a week. Reheat in oven the same way you prepared them and allow plenty of time to cool before serving them to your little one.
