- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Notes
- Serving Suggestions

– Serve alongside a grilled chicken breast for a complete, low-carb meal.
– Pair with a fresh green salad for a light meal.
– Enjoy as a snack or appetizer at parties. - Notes
– Make sure to squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the broccoli for crispier fries.
– You can also use frozen broccoli; just make sure to thaw and drain it well. - Tips
– For extra crunch, add 1/4 cup of almond flour to the mixture.
– To make the fries even crispier, broil them for an additional 2-3 minutes after baking. - Variations
– For a dairy-free version, use dairy-free cheese alternatives (e.g., nutritional yeast).
– To make it gluten-free, ensure that the ranch seasoning is gluten-free.
– For a vegan version, use plant-based cheese (e.g., cheddar, Parmesan, and mozzarella) and a flax egg.
– For a spicier kick, add some cayenne pepper to the mixture.
– Add chopped herbs like parsley or chives for extra flavor. - Prep Ahead
– The broccoli can be steamed and chopped a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
– The mixture can be prepared and shaped into fries, then stored in the refrigerator for up to 12 hours before baking.
– These fries can be made in advance and reheated in the oven for 5-7 minutes at 350°F.
