Ingredients

  • 1 15 Ounce Can Black Beans, drained
  • 8 Ounces Sliced Mushrooms (I used cremini mushrooms)
  • 1 Cup Raw Walnuts
  • 1 Small Yellow Onion, finely diced
  • 2 Cups Quick Oats
  • 2 Cloves Garlic, minced
  • 2 Teaspoons Kosher Salt
  • 1 Teaspoon Dried Parsley
  • 1 Teaspoon Dried Oregano
  • 1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Liquid Smoke

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Add all the ingredients to a food processor. Pulse until just combined. If your food processor is small, you may need to split the ingredients into two batches and then transfer to a bowl to stir together.
  3. Shape into 1.5" (3 tablespoon) sized balls. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the meatballs are browned and firm.
  4. Serve with spaghetti and marinara sauce.
