Do you require a straightforward recipe for kid-friendly vegetarian nuggets? Don’t look elsewhere! These morning star veggie nuggets are easy to make and your kids will love eating them. They are also a fantastic source of the vitamins and minerals that children need to grow into healthy, robust adults.

You’ve arrived at the proper location. This recipe is excellent for children and simple enough for a cook of any level.

Picky eaters are a natural trait in kids. The majority of them only consume meat, pasta, or hamburgers. However, if you exercise a little imagination, you might be successful in persuading your child to try some novel foods and eat more healthfully. Make vegetable dishes lively and, of course, excellent to appeal to children.

The use of a variety of vegetables in this meal is fantastic because they don’t overpower one another. Each vegetable retains all of its depth, complexity, and flavor.

These snacks meet the need for a snack while also providing all the necessary nutrients, making them suitable for older audiences as well.

morning star Veggie Nuggets Ingredients:

Most kids generally enjoy the vegetables we used in these nuggets. However, we cooked them first to soften them and improve the flavor. Some of the vegetables included:

Carrots – Carrots are a good source of Vitamin A. Most kids like them raw, but this is a good way to introduce cooked carrots as well.

Brocolli – A good add-On to this veggie Nuggets.Broccoli is a particularly rich source of vitamin C and vitamin K

Onions– These are a great way to get quercetin, an antioxidant good for kids. Onions also provide flavor to these nuggets as well.

Garlic – More flavor from garlic, but garlic is also a good source of the antioxidant Allicin.

veggie nuggets Instructions:

The eggs, garlic, steamed broccoli, carrots, 1 cup bread crumbs, and cheddar cheese should all be combined in a food processor or blender. Black pepper and onion powder are good seasonings. Blend everything together completely.

Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, roll the dough into balls, and then flatten each ball into a disc that is about 1/2 inch thick. The remaining bread crumbs, which have been arranged in a small dish, are sprinkled over each nugget.

The vegetable nuggets should be fried until crispy and golden brown, which should take around 4 minutes per side.

Serve with the dip of your child’s choice, such as ketchup, mayonnaise, or barbecue sauce.

These veggie nuggets: Are They Healthy?

The nutritional value of veggie nuggets might vary based on the ingredients and production method. Due to the fact that certain veggie nuggets contain vegetables, which are a fantastic source of vitamins and minerals, they may be a healthier alternative to conventional chicken nuggets. However, many veggie nuggets have ingredients that have undergone processing and may be heavy in sodium and bad fats. It is best to look at the nutrition label and ingredients list to evaluate whether a veggie nugget is nutritious. Choose vegetarian nuggets that are minimally processed and prepared with whole foods like grated carrots.

morning star Veggie Nuggets Tips:

Avoid combining too much!

Add the other ingredients after pounding the carrots and broccoli. Beat several times until well combined and thick—not soft—but not runny.

Use panko breadcrumbs if you want your vegetables to be more crispy. A great bright diversity in your pieces before wrapping can be achieved by prebaking the panko.

Make sure to flip at the halfway point of cooking to ensure even frying on all sides.

These veggie nuggets are delicious on their own. But since most kids love to dip, you can serve with their favorite condiment, like ketchup, ranch dressing or you can go for this homemade greek yogurt sauce.
