INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cooked Brown Lentils (198g)
1/4 cup Rolled Oats (20g)
1 large Egg
1 large Egg White
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce (125g)
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Onion Powder
1/2 tsp Dried Oregano
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a food processor, pulse the cooked lentils and rolled oats until they form a slightly chunky mixture.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and add the egg, egg white, fresh parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well until combined.
Using your hands, form the mixture into evenly sized meatballs, placing them onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through, until the meatballs are firm and lightly browned.
While the meatballs bake, gently warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat.
Once baked, serve the meatballs drizzled with the warm marinara sauce. Enjoy your balanced, flavorful dish!
