Vegan Zucchini "Meatballs"
- Number of Servings: 19
Ingredients
1 can Chickpeas (garbanzo beans) , drained and rinsed2 clove Garlic , chopped2 serving Ezekiel 4:9 7 Sprouted Grains Bread, toasted 2 tbsp Basil 1 tbsp Oregano, ground Lemon juice from half a lemonSalt and pepper to taste 1 cup, Zucchini, shredded (about 1 large zucchini)
In the bowl of a food processor, combine the drained and rinsed chickpeas, garlic cloves, and toasted bread. Pulse for about 5-10 seconds, until finely chopped. When you press the mixture between your fingers, it should hold together. Shred zucchini and squeeze out the extra liquid using a kitchen towel or cheesecloth. Transfer to a large bowl along with the dried herbs, salt, lemon juice and shredded zucchini. Do not use more than 1 cup of shredded zucchini. Stir together until well-combined. If the mixture is too wet to handle, add a little flour (you can grind extra oats into a flour) or nutritional yeast to help absorb excess moisture.
Preheat the oven to 375°F then line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using your hands, scoop out on heaping tablespoon of the zucchini mixture at a time and roll into 19 separate balls. ( or you can use a mini ice cream scoop) Arrange on the baking sheet a few inches apart then bake in the oven for 25 minutes. Or until golden brown.
