Vegan broccoli patties

Everyone, including the youngest kids, seems to know that broccoli is very healthy. However, not everyone likes it. And what do you do then? Then you make broccoli patties!

I first made these patties for lunch when I had some leftover broccoli from the night before. It hit right away.

I like these vegan broccoli patties with a simple salad of avocado, cherry tomatoes, olive oil and basil leaves (as pictured), but they are also great with a dipping sauce like tzatziki, or just plain.
