Fried Rice Balls

These Cheesy Fried Rice Balls are filled with savory rice, melted cheddar, Parmesan, and delicious bites of broccoli. They’re golden on the outside and warm and cheesy on the inside. Dipping options include Ranch, aioli, and more!
These crispy, creamy, Fried Rice Balls are as good as it gets! You can’t beat the warm broccoli cheddar rice filling surrounded by that crispy breading. Ranch makes a perfect dipping sauce for these!
