Meat Balls – subs – Hope you will like this one also, it is one of the best subs. View the video also if available, and feel free to comments, share.
Vegeterian Tips: Read the sandwich descriptions on your menu. Most would be quite tasty and still filling without the meat. Just make sure to tell your server that you want to hold the chicken or roast beef, and to double up on the veggies and cheese.
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 1 cup cooked bulgar wheat or brown rice
- 1/2 cup soy spread (recipe follows)
- 1/4 cup tofu (I subsituted for cottage cheese)
- 1/2 cup vegan bread crumbs
- 1 teaspoon Shoyu (soy sauce)
- Soy Spread:
- 1/2 onion, minced
- 1 tablespoon oil, or less
- 1/4 cup green pepper, chopped
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 small stalk celery, chopped fine
- 2 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon basil
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 1 cup cooked soy beans (I used chick-peas)
- 1 – 2 teaspoon vinegar
- salt to taste
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
Directions:
Saute onion and garlic in oil, then add celery and green pepper. Cook
until onion is transparent. Crush the garlic with a fork and add along with the tomato paste, basil and oregano. Simmer briefly. Stir this mixture into 1 cup cooked mashed beans, and then add vinegar, salt and pepper.
Combine ingredients and form into 1 1/2″ balls. Bake on greased sheet
for about 20 minutes. Makes 12 – 15 balls. Serve on spaghetti or with rice
and gravy.
Do not have nutrition facts on these, but must be low in fats. They are
very good. My non-vegetarian in-laws like them.
Serves: 4 – 6 ?
Preparation time: 30 mins.
