Earth’s Best Broccoli & Cheese Nuggets Review
I’d like to start out by asking do all of you shop at Wegmans frequently? I feel like I should definitely be heading there more often than I currently do. Our local Wegmans has a great Vegan/Vegetarian section! I’ll share what I bought in future posts. When I was in one of the freezer sections, I found these Earth’s Best Broccoli & Cheese Nuggets. I realize it says for kids, but hey, adults like some kids’ foods still too! Why do they have to be just for kids? 😂 I used to eat other broccoli and cheese bites, but they made my stomach hurt. Maybe from the dairy, maybe from the gluten…who knows? Anyway, I was excited to try these out since they don’t have gluten at least.
They did get crispy, which you all know I love! I found that even though these broccoli and cheese nuggets are pretty small, they were also pretty filling. I initially thought I would eat way more than three but ended up only eating about four in the initial meal I made. I was disappointed that there wasn’t more cheese. Having cheese in the name, you would think they would ooze cheese, but no. Also, some gluten free products are not obvious they’re gluten free because the company did such a great job. Other items definitely have an off taste so you know they’re different. I would say these nuggets are somewhere in between. The texture and overall taste were pretty good but you can still tell they taste slightly off. They didn’t make my stomach hurt though!
Nutrition Facts
So first I would like to say, you’re most likely not going to eat just 3 of these nuggets which is the serving size. The fat, calories, and carbs still aren’t that high though. I’m also thrilled there’s zero cholesterol, and they have dietary fiber and protein. The main reason I wanted to let you all know about these broccoli and cheese nuggets is because they’re gluten free! These nuggets also don’t have any artificial flavors and there are vitamins.
Cooking
All you have to do is put these nuggets on a cookie sheet and pop them in the oven. They don’t take long to cook at all and get nice and crispy. 😋 You could flip them halfway through if you wanted, but you don’t need to. They turn out exactly how they look on the box at least from the outside (the cheese is a bit lacking).
Stores
As I said, I found the Earth’s Best Broccoli & Cheese nuggets at Wegmans.
Overall, these broccoli and cheese nuggets were pretty good although go in with the mindset that they are gluten free. Yes, it says for kids, but all you adults will enjoy these too! 😂
