Ingredients

    Pasta:
    5-6 zucchini squash
    1 t salt

    Vegan Meatballs:
    -5.5 cups Portobello mushrooms, roughly chopped
    -1.5 cup walnuts, soaked overnight
    -1 yellow onion, chopped
    -2 clove garlic
    -2 T apple cider vinegar
    -1/2 cup parsley
    -2 t cumin
    -2 T Nama Shoyu
    2 teaspoons kosher salt
    1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
    2 tablespoon Nutritional yeast
    For the sauce:
    1 tablespoon good olive oil
    1 cup chopped yellow onion (1 onion)
    1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
    1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes, or plum tomatoes in puree, chopped
    1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
    1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
    1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

PROCESS
1. Spiralize, mandoline, or just cut zucchini into noodles. Toss with ½ t of salt and set aside in a colander to drain.
2. Drain walnuts and add all meatball ingredients (except the Portobello mushrooms) to the food processor and blend, then add Portobello mushrooms and blend for a few pulses.

For the sauce, heat the olive oil in the same pan. Add the onion and saute over medium heat until translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Add the wine and cook on high heat, scraping up all the brown bits in the pan, until almost all the liquid evaporates, about 3 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, parsley, salt, and pepper.
