Toast the sprouted bread, and put in food processor to make fine crumbs.

Add the broccoli, crumbs and potatoes along with the other ingredients into a bowl and mix everything together. Make sure to mix very well because if you have pockets that are mainly broccoli the tater tots won’t form together as well.
