2 eggs
45g, 1.5oz Cauliflower
40g Mozzarella grated cheese ( or any of your desired ones)

Oil for greasing the muffin pan


Sauce

I mixed some wasabi, mayo and cheddar cheese sauce to go with this bites.

Methods

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.
Cook the cauliflower in boiling water for 4 minutes (or use leftover cauliflower).  
Crack the eggs and add in the cheese. Mix well.
Grease a mini muffin tin.
Once the cauliflower is cooked, drain and cool with cold water. I grind the cooked cauliflower into smash and mixed into the egg and cheese.  Put into the wells of the mini muffin tin and bake for 15 minutes or until puffed up, golden and cooked through.



Note: If you do not have a grinder, you may chopped up the cooked cauliflower as well.
