Meatballs

300 gr cooked brown or green lentils

2 shallots and 2 garlic cloves diced and sautéed in love oil

A small bunch of parsley

2 tsp dried Italian herbs

1 tbsp tomato paste

1 tsp red chili flakes

2 tbsp nutritional yeast

¼ cup oats maybe little more in case the mixture is too moist

1 flax egg {1 tbsp flax meal + 3 tbsp water}

Toss all ingredients in a food processor and pulse until you have a good consistancy. It should hold together but still have a bit of chunky feel.

Form 12 little balls with wet hands. Keep wetting hands in between so the mixture doesn't stick to your hands.

Fry in a hot pan with some olive oil about 5 minutes on each side.

Serve with your favorite home made marinara sauce and pasta!

Don't forget loads of fresh basil and a good olive oil on top
