Mushroom Meatballs

Make this juicy and plump meatballs for your next pasta night. It’s packed with fiber and does good for the environment too!

The aluring yellow labels

There’s one type of food that often has a yellow label when I go to the supermarket on a Sunday afternoon; mushrooms. I’d buy enough for a couple of days worth of dishes.

Mushrooms are fantastic. Pick a dish. The rule of thumb is that you can add mushrooms to any type of dish. Pasta, soup noodles, casserole, stir-fries, gosh, anything. They’re meaty and succulent, but they’re not meat!

Although, if you buy discounted groceries, you do need to use them right away. Pfft, challenge accepted.

Your body is a temple

If you’re on a journey to eat healthier, you’ll know it’s no party. We’ve got into the habit of having porridge for breakfast everyday, even on a Sunday where we usually have a breakfast fry-up. Fry-ups are for sunday lunches now, except with Quorn sausages.

Quorn sausages aren’t so bad, but remember those fat, juicy beef sausages? Gosh, I haven’t had them in ages. What do they even taste like? Kidding, nobody forgets the taste of smoky sausages. Ever.

Meet my goth meatballs

Now, let’s talk about the kind of mushrooms you can use to make mushroom meatballs. You’ve guessed it, you can use any mushroom to make meatballs. Is it obvious that my meatballs are black?

All mushrooms have black-coloured gills, and the large and flat mushrooms that I used have more gills, and that made my meatballs black. My little goth veggie meatballs. I love them.

Why you will make this mushroom meatballs over and over again

Eating healthier means you kinda have to get creative with your ingredients. This is where mushrooms shines! This recipe makes meaty meatballs that are not dry or crumbly.

The mushrooms produce meatier texture while oats and breadcrumbs melds all the ingredients together, producing succulent veggie meatballs.

This recipe doesn’t shy from using a handful of herbs, you’d know it’s full of flavour just by looking at my list of ingredients. I don’t mind having mushroom meatballs every other week.

Which brings me to my next point, you can freeze them just like any other meatballs. This is a fantastic when you can’t be bothered to whip up something healthy.

Only tip: Ball them into 1 inch meatballs

I often make them bite size, but this time I made them huge! Making them into 1 inch sized meatballs makes for a more flavourful and well-baked meatballs. Smaller meatballs have more crispier outside too. So, don’t repeat my mistake!
