Cooking Method

Preheat Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 180°C. Grease a baking sheet with cooking spray or olive oil and set aside.
Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped or grated mixed vegetables, breadcrumbs, grated cheese, chopped onion, chopped bell pepper, chopped parsley or coriander, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and Aromat seasoning. Mix thoroughly to combine all the ingredients.
Prepare Eggs: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until well combined.
Combine: Pour the beaten eggs into the vegetable and breadcrumb mixture. Stir well until everything is evenly coated and the mixture holds together.
Form Nuggets: Scoop out portions of the mixture and shape them into small nuggets using your hands. Place the nuggets on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake: Bake the veggie nuggets in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Flip halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.
Serve: Once the veggie nuggets are cooked through and crispy, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Serve the Eggcellent Veggie Nuggets with your child's favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, ranch dressing, or hummus. These nuggets are a delightful and nutritious option for a meal or snack.
