Drain and rinse with cold water; pat dry with paper towels, set aside and let cool.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine sliced green onions, garlic, breadcrumbs, egg, cheeses, oregano, garlic powder, parsley, salt, and pepper.
Add cooled cauliflower and carrots to your food processor; pulse several times or until uniformly chopped – you don't want to get it too fine.
Add cheese mixture to the food processor; pulse about 5 to 6 times or until all is well combined.
Spoon about 2 tablespoons of mixture in your hands and shape into ovals.
Transfer to prepared baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes; flip the tots and continue to cook for 9 to 10 minutes, or until golden browned.
Remove from oven and let stand several minutes.
Serve with dipping sauces; ketchup, mustard, yogurt, etc...
Notes
