Ingredients
Olive oil for sautéing (We like to use a 2-in-one oil sprayer & dispenser)
2 packages of mushrooms (White button, Baby Bella)
1 onion
1-2 cloves of garlic
1 cup of toasted walnuts
1 cup of rolled oats (We like One Degree)
1 flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flax with 2 1/2 tablespoons water. Let sit for 5 minutes.
(1) 15 oz. can lentils drained and rinsed or packet (We like Eden Organic)
1 tablespoon vegan Worcestershire (We like Wizards Sauce)
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast (We like Bragg)
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350° Fahrenheit and spray your saucepan/skillet with olive oil.
Sauté mushrooms and onions in a little olive oil. Add in minced garlic.
Toast your walnuts (in a dry skillet for just a few minutes) and blend the walnuts and oats into dust.
In a large bowl, put in lentils, the blended walnuts, oats, and the sautéed mushrooms, onions, garlic, nutritional yeast, Worcestershire, and seasoning, and mix together.
Form into balls and bake for approximately 25 minutes at 350° Fahrenheit.
Cook your spaghetti or pasta of your choice as indicated on the package. If you don't want to do pasta, you can also do spaghetti squash, zucchini noodles, or heart of palm noodles. And it's healthier, too!
Put the meatballs over the pasta with your favorite tomato sauce!
Special Notes
The lentils can be in a packet/box or can, but if you use dried, it will take more time for the recipe.
