Keto Tater Tots: Same Taste, Same Fun

[@irmalopez2242]

So happy to have found your Your You-Tube program. You have a gift for simplifying recipes for low carb meals everyone will enjoy. Thank you so much.

[@evelynladue491]

I just found you today, and I'm living your ideas. I watchyour video about why your doing this way of cooking, and I'm right there with you. I saw your chicken casserole and this tator tot video, and now I'm hooked. Can't wait to see your other ideas coupled with my favorite low carb recipe book. I love your channel. Thank you.

[@shawnna2215]

So Happy I found your channel Your delivery of the recipes is so calming and not in your face and music and hectic like some others can be. I appreciate that very much. I will be making your pizza casserole recipe for Super Bowl :0) Thank You for Your Recipes!

[@amlaboy]

I made these last night (used garlic powder and dried chives as my spices) and we ate them all. Didn't seed them. Used a tea towel to extract liquid. I don't think they taste like tater tots, but they were awesome. Kind of like mini zucchini quiches. Love this recipe, Dot! Absolutely yummy. Thanks for sharing.

[@joorner6486]

I love these Keto Tater Tots. I make a double recipe almost every week and keep them in the frig for a no-thought snack. I don't use the pepper; I use some Italian seasoning.

[@sherrydee7880]

I learned how to hand grate the entire zucchini by leaving the stem ON & tossing it into my stock bowl for later use. It stores nicely in the freezer with other bits of veggies that I add to a large size zip lock baggie. The cleanup time of the food processor isn't worth my time. Zucchini's are so easy to grate!

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

Cool tips, thank you :)

[@ruthfannin9990]

I was thinking the same thing. By the time I drag my food processor out from the bottom cabinet, set it up, clean it afterward, and put it back in the cupboard I could have shredded a box full of zucchini with a kitchen mandolin.

[@terrymoline8260]

So glad to just find you . Great recipe and smart people commenting. Iam definitely going to subscribe and have been doing keto for around one year . At age 67 there are so many benefits .

[@jnevil3201]

Hi Dot, Thanks for another great recipe. I just made this, but I added chopped chicken & bacon to it. I am thrilled to tell you, my zucchini hater absolutely loved it. Mom, why have you not cooked zucchini this way before, I really like it. This is now how I am making my pizza. I am using this recipe adding my meats into it and baking. Serving it with sauce & extra cheese on top. This was fast & uses less dishes. We really love the nutmeg added to our cauliflower mash. Thank you for all the great food.

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

I love a success story. Really love it when "X haters" turn around and go "wow, I love it" -- my husband, with cabbage now.

[@scpatl4now]

I have made these 3 times now and they are so good. It is super important to get as much of the water out of the zucchini as you can. They will be crispier. I've seen this with cauliflower, but I just don't like cauliflower so this is a welcomed alternative.

[@suzannemorris1424]

Keto diet is great! mentally more alert and you have more energy!😊

[@cyndifoore7743]

I like your channel. I’m on a loose form of keto and intermittent fasting and I really miss having bread, I definitely have to try these. I subscribed.

[@debbieandmarc]

I really appreciate the picture in picture filming you do. 👍

[@yvetteg1098]

Love these recipes. They actually work.

[@gins8781]

i love this! i use zucchini for pizza crust too. i grate zucchini before freezing so its ready to go when needed. Some water will be drawn out from freezing so it is a little quicker to express the remaining moisture before adding to the recipe.

[@foodietrends]

I made these today following your recipe and it turned out an absolute win, my two fussy eaters loved these and they couldn't believe that they ate zucchini. I am going to make a big batch tomorrow. Great recipe for kid's lunch. Thank you for sharing. 👍🏻

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

Awesome! That's just great! :) I knew kids would love them.

[@eprzepiora]

Looks delicious. I am making them tomorrow for the New Year's party at home

[@AugustHawk]

Growing up, my parents would always save and freeze the strained water from veggies (even most of the water used for steaming/boiling veggies) and used the water for broth in soups, stews, casseroles or to marinate chicken for added flavor or to add in dressing for Thanksgiving. It really was good. Perhaps this is excessive "recycling" but then we were kinda poor. lol :)

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

Reusing the water is brilliant. :)

[@audreytaylor4888]

My mother did too she even"boiled it down " to concentrate it and used it in soups and stews in the winter kept us mostly healthy

[@dvdgalutube]

Nothing wrong with that. I think it’s a brilliant idea. We have accustomed to be too wasteful these days. Cheers!

[@FollowYah-a2z]

Great idea! I’m vegetarian and love the idea of recycling, not wasting! Thanks for mentioning/sharing!

[@jeepgurl1379]

How smart is that! I will need to incorporate that skill in my kitchen.

[@christinewilliams7005]

You are just a natural! Thanks for sharing.

[@kikataye6293]

I made these and they were amazing!

[@qormi1000]

These look great. Thank you from Australia, Dot.

[@lynpinto]

Dot I love your channel I just started the ketosis eating plan and your cooking is so wonderful. Good job you have inspired me thanks.

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

Thank you and good luck with keto. I really do love it.

[@zariballard]

You are so cute! I just discovered your channel and I'm already making the pizza casserole and I'm making these next:) I love the way you incorporate that split screen sometimes so we can really get a bird's eye view of what you're doing...thank u!

Thank you.

[@nicolepilling3179]

You have been my inspiration to cook on this keto lifestyle thankyou keep the ideas coming

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

My pleasure! :)

[@cackleberrycottage2340]

Hi Dot. I am chronically ill and I was eating like this and loosing weight. Then I went on a cruise last April and contracted Shigella from the food there and when I recovered, I fell off the low carb wagon. So I want to get back on as I have about 30 lbs. I need to loose. Thanks for giving me the nudge I needed to get back to it. This is a great way to eat and it was really working for me.

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

I'm sorry you got sick but am happy to hear you recovered. Getting back on on the wagon is tough but the positive is that it worked for you before the cruise/illness. That means it will work again. Good luck!

[@peppercorndog]

Hi Dot! Just wanted to say that I love your videos and recipes. Great presentation; its very professional. Thank you!

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

Well thanks a lot, and happy you're liking them :)

[@karenquick8737]

Thank you, Dot! I have about half of a huge zucchini left and will take the seeds out first, and get my two cups. I can almost smell how yummy they are!!

[@rachellepincus9055]

Thanks Dot. I generally cook pretty simple but this looks like I could use this in replace of potatoes for even my young adult non low carb kids. Now I am going to check out your green bean casserole. Holidays are around the corner.

[@Harrrgh]

Finally made these yesterday (added some minced red pepper) and they were SO yummy!

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

nice!

[@WanieB]

Thanks for the seed removal tip, now I know why they're bitter sometimes 😉

[@shdwbnndbyyt]

FYI -- Flax seed is full of an Omega-3 precursor molecule that your body transforms into Omega-3 fatty acids. The problem is that the precursor is NOT efficiently transformed into Omega-3 fatty acids. At best about 40% is converted, but that drops to about 10% as you age. So in order to get the Omega-3 fatty acids you need, you must eat several times the flax seed than you do something like Fish Oil.

[@lisathrift-blatnica2619]

Love 💕 your sweet personality Dot!! Thank you for sharing. I to make EVERYTHING from scratch ZERO Carbs. Best thing ever!! God Bless you.

[@robertofisher]

Loving your recipes! I love comfort food and think you've got the best channel for that hands down. I just subscribed.

[@dorismccollester9522]

Thank you , they are very good , made a mistake and did not take them out of the pan right away and they stuck to it even though I buttered it . Still tasty but broken , next time I will turn pan right away out of the oven .... good recipe !

[@pauletten.5861]

You are so right! They are to live for! I will be making them again extremely soon!

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

Yay!

Thank you for such wonderful recipes. Trying a lot of the recipes now love them all.

Awesome! Glad to show them to appreciative people :) Thanks for letting me know!

[@julieandruz]

Hi Dot... just found your tube channel! So happy that I did. I have watched a few of your recipes and want to try them all. I wasn’t sure what zucchini was. In the UK we call them courgettes. My grand children will like these too. By the way forgot to congratulate you on your weight loose journey. I am 60 and need to loose 60 pounds. Regards Julie

[@alexjaffe5143]

Great food and love prep split screen

Fantastic......thanks for this amazing recipe

[@luckyrobinshomestead]

You are really very inventive. I'm glad I found your channel.

Thank you!

[@normanbuitta2171]

You can use a potato ricer to squeeze the moisture out.....I use this method for hash browns. Cheers!

[@ritabrunetti381]

I am just trying to change my diet/eating habits because I've had to start taking Metformin for high glucose levels. I've subscribed to your channel to help me accomplish my goal. Lower my glucose level, high blood pressure levels and overall good health.

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

Welcome to the channel and good luck

[@darlin1951]

Starchy Vegetables, sugars, and corn syrup in everything are where the carbs are coming from. Search youtube for oxylates and anti nutrients in vegetables. Get fat adapted and ease more towards carnivore asap. Those are what is causing everybody and his brother Chron's, IBS, SIBO, whole colon diverticulosis, diverticulitis, and ulcerative colitis, diabetes, HBP, and heart disease. Saw on the news, eating red meat is OK, and past advice to NOT eat it was bad advice, and that they were wrong.

[@jackieraulerson2005]

There’s a potato (and corn) extract that works wonders in these and cauliflower dishes.

[@lindafox7822]

Looks and sounds delicious. Thanks for the recipe.

[@kathleenflaherty8408]

Hi Dot - I like that you added your tasting at the end! It's also nice to see what the inside of a dish looks like once you cut a serving and plate it à la Laura Vitale. I think I have all the ingredients to make these tonight!

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

Yes, I reaaaaly need to do a better job cutting stuff open for folks to see. Thanks for the reminder :) Enjoy!

[@kathleenflaherty8408]

You're doing a great job! Love your videos! Love the "in the bowl" view, too.

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

Awesome, thanks :) yeah we're working on all aspects of the vids.

[@4UStevePerry]

So is broccoli love making broccoli pancakes. I m saving the zucchini for my lasagna for Easter.

[@sherrimoffett3768]

I found putting the zucchini in my juicer extracts all the moisture and leaves the shredded pulp! I do the same thing with cauliflower...

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

Now that is an excellent idea! :)

[@Kcost1024]

I love it .. I was wondering how to do this without a Food processor

[@Fidg234]

Don't have a juicer but will use my salad spinner. Good idea Sherri - I never would have thought of this.

[@39sunbeam]

Sherri Moffett now I want a juicer!

[@TheEMC99]

Using a milknut bag is great if you have limited gadgets.

[@lorriekinlaw6721]

Seeds also have lectins, which some need to avoid. Great video! Thank you.

[@cathycutler7996]

Have you tried a celery root? I made a Keto stew recipe and cut the celery root into cubes like a potato I put it in the crockpot with other Keto veggies for 8 hrs in the crockpot it was a hit. My husband thought it really was potatoes.

[@dona62851]

Omg! This looks so yummy! Cant wait to make it!

[@Sharon-el5jn]

Dot, thanks for the tip about deseeding the zuchinni first.Had these with your pulled pork....YUMMY! Thanks a million.

Hehe, saw your comment on the pulled pork :) So glad you enjoyed both!

My wife uses the microwave to precook the zoodles and they drain very well. I plan to make some of the tots.

This is too complicated and involved for me, but I bet they are delicious. Thanks for sharing.

[@lindaelinor648]

Hey Dot, I was wondering if I could use my juicer and save the water from the zucchini for soup and then use the pulp (that I normally compost) for the tater tot recipe??? I have often wanted a recipe to use up the pulp...think I’ll give this a try with other veggies too!

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

That's a great idea. If I had a juicer, I'd do that :)

[@4UStevePerry]

Zucchini juice is usually kind of butter if you ask me. One time though i was making zucchini bread and used a really juicy one from my mils garden. I had to add extra flour and other dry ingredients. Then I added lemon extract and brown sugar cause they didn't have flavor. Anyway they ended coming out delicious zucchini brownies. My co-workers loved them this was not Keto then. I couldn't duplicate the recipe ever.

[@tinyclark7277]

Love your recipies....

[@Johnny4ME2U]

Get one of those small melon or ice cream scoops how ever you call it. It's just the perfect size. Love you vid's.

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

Thanks for the tip!

[@jeremymetcalf2502]

Nope. I just ate a bunch of hashbrowns this morning. Two yummy vegan burger patties underneath. Ugh, drooling typing this lol. Love zucchini too.

[@danrichardson3653]

What are your thoughts on leaving out the flax seed flour and sub for ground pork rinds? Great tutorial, I just subbed.

[@mamalv1]

to seriously lessen the water content .... don't use the real onion (too much added moisture) ...try using minced or powdered onion to the batch. I learned this trick yrs ago for the real tots or patties. Works great. Thank you so much for your recipe ...it will really help

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

Great idea :) Thanks!

[@retiredgardener9794]

[@jemsmom97]

Wished I’d seen this comment before I made them had to squeeze out a lot of liquid from the onions as well as the zucchini.

[@lynpinto]

I made the taters but they didn't turn out as nice as yours. I didn't have that size of small cupcake pan mine was regular size. So I cooked them long and then I popped them out an cut them in quarters and put them back in the over for 10 min. But they taste amazing. Thanks for all your great cooking. Ideas.

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

Pretty creative on your end! Glad they still tasted great.

[@marksharpe6384]

Dot were are you, I miss you..........

[@tamsondarland8951]

I wonder if you could use a silicone type of baking container with small portion spots that are 1to 2 tablespoons per spot. Alot of utubers use these type when making fat bombs recipes. This could make tots smaller and more round shaped.

[@stampingwithmichelle]

TY for your recipes, they all look so yummy! I would love to try this recipe but I was wondering what is the seasoning mix recipe?

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

I think in this one, I used a Korean red pepper I purchased. But I have a "spice series" where I talk about various spices I use in other videos, and show how they're made: kzbin.info/aero/PLBce9IuGDY-KoLL2RfRhAuD4r4ZH8Ha_Q

[@BaldwinRealtyGroupLLCColumbus]

Love the idea of having a keto friendly tater tot substitute. Thank you. What about using a potato ricer to squeeze out the excess liquid? Wendy

What about a dipping sauce? Thanks

[@karenpadecky2973]

Have you tried using radishes?

[@Dot2TrotsLowCarbLiving]

No but I like the way you think!

[@TheJosiahsmom]

Dot...do you have to pre-oil the muffin tins before cooking the tots? This looks like a God-send for my husband and I, who are potato lovers. Oops -- I just saw that you answered my question later in the video - thanks!
