INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup cooked lentils (100g)
1 cup mushrooms, chopped (70g)
2 large eggs (100g)
1/4 cup whole wheat breadcrumbs (30g)
1 teaspoon olive oil (5g)
1/2 cup marinara sauce (125g)
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese (5g)
2 tablespoons fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet.
Finely chop the mushrooms and parsley. In a large bowl, combine the cooked lentils, chopped mushrooms, beaten eggs, breadcrumbs, olive oil, and parsley.
Season the mixture with a pinch of salt and pepper, and mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Scoop the mixture into evenly sized balls (around 12 meatballs) and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the meatballs are firm and lightly browned.
Meanwhile, warm the marinara sauce in a small pan over low heat.
Once the meatballs are done, gently toss them in the warm marinara sauce or serve the sauce on the side, and top with grated Parmesan cheese.
Serve hot and enjoy your hearty, nutritious meal.
