Ingredients

  • 2 cups chopped mushrooms
  • 1 ½ cups chopped kale
  • ¾ cup chopped yellow or sweet onion
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 ½ cups precooked lentils
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • ½ cup almond flour
  • ¼ cup sunflower seeds
  • 4 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  2. Sauté the mushrooms, kale, onion, and garlic in oil or veggie broth until soft and no liquid remains, then set aside to cool.
  3. Once cooled, pulse the sautéed veggies in a food processor until chopped into small pieces.
  4. Add lentils, oats, almond flour, sunflower seeds, oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper to the food processor and pulse until crumbly.
  5. Allow the mixture to set for 5-10 minutes to let the oats soak in some liquid.
  6. Shape the mixture into 2-inch balls and place them on a parchment-lined cookie sheet.
  7. Bake for 25 minutes, flip the meatballs, and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until browned.
  8. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
