INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cooked Lentils (198g)
1/4 cup Rolled Oats (21g)
1 tbsp Ground Flaxseed (7g)
1 large Egg White (33g)
2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast (16g)
1 clove Minced Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce (122g)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked lentils, rolled oats, ground flaxseed, egg white, nutritional yeast, minced garlic, and chopped fresh basil.
Season the mixture with salt and pepper, and use a potato masher or fork to gently mash the ingredients until they hold together but still have some texture.
With damp hands, form the mixture into small, bite-sized meatballs and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, turning them over halfway through to ensure even baking, until they are firm and slightly golden.
Meanwhile, warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat.
Once baked, serve the lentil meatballs topped with a generous spoonful of warm marinara sauce.
