Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Sauté the vegetables: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, and mushrooms. Cook until the mushrooms release their moisture and everything softens (about 5-7 minutes).
- Combine the mixture: In a large bowl, mix the cooked mushroom mixture with quinoa, chopped walnuts, parsley, nutritional yeast, soy sauce, and chickpea flour. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Form the meatballs: Scoop out about 1-2 tablespoons of the mixture and roll into balls. Place each meatball onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them.
- Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown and firm to the touch.
- Serve: Enjoy your mushroom meatballs with marinara sauce, over pasta, or as a snack with your favorite dipping sauce!
