Ingredients

• 1 medium head cauliflower
• 1 cup almond flour
• 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 medium celery stalks
• 1 small onion
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried sage
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
• 0.25 cup chicken broth

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Step 2

Trim the leaves from the head of cauliflower and break it into small florets. Use a food processor to pulse the florets until they reach a rice-like consistency.

Step 3

Spread the cauliflower rice on a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible.

Step 4

Dice the celery and onion finely.

Step 5

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the diced celery and onion and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower rice, almond flour, Parmesan cheese, sautéed celery and onion, eggs, garlic powder, thyme, sage, salt, pepper, and parsley.

Step 7

Add the chicken broth gradually and mix until the mixture holds together well when pressed into a ball. You may need a little more or less broth depending on how wet your cauliflower is.

Step 8

With clean hands, shape the mixture into golf ball-sized balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the stuffing balls are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 10

Let the stuffing balls cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them as a side dish or a delightful snack!
