Ingredients

Vegan Meatballs

Thai Glaze

Preparation

Vegan Meatballs

1. Prepare the Flax Egg

In a small bowl, mix the ground flaxseed with 6 tablespoons of water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it thickens.

2. Combine Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine cooked quinoa, black beans, breadcrumbs, the prepared flax egg, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, chili paste, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

3. Form Meatballs

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking sheet. Using your hands, form the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

4. Bake Meatballs

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and firm to the touch.

Thai Glaze

5. Combine Glaze Ingredients

In a small saucepan, whisk together soy sauce, maple syrup, rice vinegar, lime juice, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water.

6. Cook the Glaze

Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and becomes glossy, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat.

7. Glaze Meatballs

Once the meatballs are baked, drizzle the glaze over them and toss gently to coat.

Napa Cabbage Slaw

8. Prepare the Slaw

In a large bowl, combine shredded napa cabbage, grated carrot, sliced green onions, cilantro, and sesame seeds.

9. Make the Dressing

In a separate small bowl, whisk together rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper.

10. Combine Slaw and Dressing

Pour the dressing over the slaw and toss well to combine. Let it sit for about 10 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
