High Protein Lentil Meatballs: packed with protein and fiber — perfect for meal prep or a meat-free day!
Ingredients
For 36 meatballs:
- 450 g cooked lentils
- 1 egg
- 30 g rolled oats
- 40 g protein cheese, I used Eatlean grated Cheese
- Spices to taste: onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, pepper
Tools Needed
- 1 large pan
- Food Gloves
Instructions
Cook the lentils, or use canned one. Remove any excess water.
In a food processor, pulse a few times, to squash them a bit.
Add the egg, oats, cheese, and spices, then blend or mix until you get a homogeneous dough.
Shape the mixture into meatballs (I got around 36).
Cook them in a pan with a bit of oil, bake them at 200°C for about 20 minutes, or air fry until golden.
