Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 400°F.
-
Over medium heat, sauté minced onion, garlic, and oil until onions become translucent.
-
Add textured vegetable protein and broth to the pan, mix together.
-
Cover pan and cook mixture on low-medium heat for about 10 minutes, allowing the textured vegetable protein to soak up the flavor.
-
Meanwhile, stir together Bored Cow, bread crumbs, ground flax, pepper, nutritional yeast, and basil or thyme.
-
After 10 minutes, combine the two mixtures together until a dough forms (it should be somewhat sticky).
-
Shape out the dough into approximately 8 balls, each containing about 2 tablespoons of mixture. Lightly wet your hands to help form the "meat"balls.
-
Place "meat"balls on a greased baking sheet and lightly brush them with oil.
-
Bake at 400°F for 30 minutes, stopping to turn the meatballs a few times during baking for optimal browning.
