Meatless okara "meat" balls

  • Number of Servings: 4
Ingredients
2 slices of stale artisan bread1 egg 1/2 cup okara, .5 cup (okara is a byproduct of making tofu)1 tsp Better than Bouillon organic vegetable1 tsp minced onion 1 tsp tamari 1/4 cup breadcrumbs1/2 cup milk2 walnuts, chopped
Directions
Soak the stale pieces of bread in milk until soft. Squeeze to get as much milk out as possible. Pulse the bread until it becomes "crumbled" into small pieces. (I use a blender and keep pulsing until the bread is in teensy pieces.) Add egg, okara, bouillon, tamari, minced onion, chopped walnuts and any spices of choice (salt, pepper, oregano). If needed add breadcrumbs to hold okara balls together. Shape into balls and roll in breadcrumbs to help hold the shape. Slightly oil a piece of parchment paper and place on baking sheet. Place okara "meat"balls on parchment paper and cook in 400º preheated oven for 20 minutes or until evenly brown, turning occasionally.
