Another great video! We are both in our 80's and feel better than ever! We are all about healthy aging -- maintaining a strong body, a calm mind, and a very positive outlook. For us, switching to a healthy vegan diet was the key to overcoming devastating life-threatening illnesses. We are doing research for our new Healthy-Aging Advice RUclips channel to make it a success. Our hope is to inspire others. Learned a lot here. Thank-you.
I made these a few nights ago and served them with chickpea pasta and Jill's zucchini lasagna! The texture and flavor was excellent!!! I froze half of them - always so nice to have something of Jill's in the freezer for the days when leftovers are all you have time for!! Thank you, Jill!!!❤
I’m 3 weeks into WFPB. I’m so thankful to have found your channel! Thank you so much for all of your amazing recipes that are so easy to follow! Made the zuppa toscana and shepherds pie already...Both delicious! Looking forward to trying this recipe!
I agree. Jill has great recipes. Can’t wait to try these. Glad she said can freeze. Other’s worth following for WFPB great recipes and other great lifestyle information is Nutmeg Notebook and Chef AJ.
WOW! I went WFPB about one year ago and have tried numerous recipes for gluten free plant based meatballs - these are by far the BEST!! Great flavor and amazing texture, especially after they "rest" overnight. They are great with a marinara sauce and also with a nice vegan gravy. I also appreciate they use buckwheat, which I find healthier and quicker to cook than brown rice. Thank you Jill for your wonderful YT channel and website and the great work you are doing - time for me to become a supporting member.
These meatballs remind me of my Aunt Anna and her Italian Wedding Soup. She would make dozens of tiny meatballs to put into the soup, what patience she had! This recipe would be a way to adapt her soup to a WFPB diet. I've been thinking about making that soup with vegan meatballs and gluten-free soup pasta. These meatballs would be great in it!
Hi Jill thank you so much. I have been looking for a good ‘meatball’ recipe and love the fact you always include us that need gluten free. Ordered your book last night on Amazon UK look forward to trying yr recipes. All the best for ur continued success and thank you for the great videos.
Hi, Jill! Your bread recipe has been a staple in my diet for 2 years now so you could imagine I have eaten it with many things. I love toasting it and dipping it in hummus or making "French toast" by toasting it and putting maple syrup over it. And, my absolute favorite thing I do with it is make pizza bread. It occurred to me one day while eating my pizza bread that with the marinara sauce on it, it seems like a meatball! Albeit a bland one, it has that same bite and texture to it! Maybe putting the spices into it would really make it like a meatball. I have to use chia seeds in the bread instead of flax seeds because I am allergic to them, so maybe that's why the texture is the way it is. The other go to recipe of yours I make very frequently is the cauliflower pizza crust, but with ground chia seeds. So, so good! Thank you for all you do!!
I just tried to find it myself and don't see it. Hmmm... Jill, did you have a recipe for that? Maybe I found that somewhere else. It's been a while back so I don't remember. I thought I had asked you about using chia seeds instead of flax seed because I am allergic to flax seeds and I remember you answering me back quickly as I was shopping for the ingredients in the store at the time.
Thank you so much for your wonderful and delicious recipes 😄 I just received a copy of your book from Amazon and I am excited to try the recipes soon 😋 thank you for being so generous with all that you share with us 🙏🏻
I’m so glad to have stumbled upon your channel! I’ve tried a few recipes so far and think they’re delicious. I’m looking forward to doing these meatballs!
Loved this lovely recipe and I so love you Jill. The amount of work you two put into this show is wonderfully spectacular. Thankyou both for all your hard work and Amazing awesomesauce recipes!!☺️😎😍❤️🥰🤩
... Pasta is so much better when you finish the pasta in the sauce in a skillet then plated … That way the pasta is infused with the sauce making for a better product… And of course those meatballs will taste a lot better if you let them cook in the sauce for at least 15 minutes… But it's a very nice recipe...SONO BUONI❗... God is good ...🇺🇸
Thank you Jill, for another great recipe, not sure if you already mentioned it, but would it be possible for me to freeze the extra ones, it is just two of us! :)
I have never eaten or cooked mushrooms in all my 70 years, but I trust you so much I am going to try to make these meatballs. What kind of mushrooms should I buy, and do I get them fresh from the produce department?
Use fresh chestnut mushrooms. I call them brown mushrooms. I think the flavour & texture of those mushrooms would better suit this recipe. Mushrooms have vitamin D & Copper in them - good for your bones. Hope this helps you and your day is good for you.
Hmmmm - - I could see this recipe being pressed into muffin tins for something a little less roly poly on the go. Then it occurred to me that it might make a good "meatloaf" recipe too ???
Hi. I tried this recipe. I was so excited but it came out raw. The outside looked beautiful and it rose like flour bread. Can you give me any tips as I would really love this recipe to work.
Jill these look delicious and I plan on making . Curious, can these be baked half way in the oven then cooked the rest of the way in the tomato sauce to be enhanced with the sauce flavors like a traditional Italian meatball?
I use shelf stable cooking wine since I don't drink. People who drink wine find this blasphemous, but I've never had wine so it works for me and I think it tastes delicious in recipes.

Unless you're really dedicated to a whole foods plant based diet, it may be easier to buy meat replacements from the store if you still crave meat and transition to WFPB later. Gardein brand makes a meatless meatball and meatloaf, Trader Joe's does as well. This type of recipe won't taste like a meatball you're used to.
Thanks for your recipe. But lots of the ingredients you use are really bad for your health. I have seen lots of tofu (soy feeds pathogens), nutritional yeast (has msg naturally forming on it, even if it says it doesn’t have any), brags liquid amino acids is not good for you either. I really suggest you get the Medical Medium information... a lot of people follow your recipes so I think you have a lot of responsibility. You are really a nice person and I hope you get my comments on a nice way.
Hi Monica, we appreciate the feedback but we get our nutritional guidance from folks like Dr. Michael Greger at Nutrionafacts.org and Dr. T Colin Campbell. Tofu, nutritional yeast, and braggs aminos are fine based on everything we have researched and can be part of a plant based diet.
I know all the science and literature out there. I have been plant based for over 21 years. The fact is that I got so sick following those guidelines I almost died. I have been surviving following the Medical Medium protocols and information, that is why I am suggesting this information, with much respect. I have promoted your channel and what you do in plant based nutritional course in ECornell, because I really like what you do. But, In those courses they tell you to not eat that much fruit and in my case (and many other cases) fruit has brought back to life people, just like me. That tells you how lost science is in many ways. I hope you don’t have to live through what I lived. And I hope you check out the MM information for guidelines in what foods to eat and not to eat. Thanks for your response and I have much respect for your work.

cant wait to make these. NO red wine in house . Staying away from the store. But I am sure these will b delicious. Thank u so much
You can probably use vegetable broth/stock if you wanted. It won't be exactly the same but they'll still taste great :D
This sounds great and ingredients are easy to find. Can't wait to make it! Love your channel, it has helped me so much with a vegan diet!
I love meatballs and Spagetti. Thank you for your recipe. I will be tryng it
I love your recipes! When I make them, I do add olive oil. I have heard to little oil in our diets can lead to dementia problems later on.
I use a small inexpensive Coffee grinder instead of a mortar and pestle.
Thank for reading my post. I wish I had money 💰 to support your channel.
l tried to grind flax seeds in the mortar - what a laugh. Spice/coffee grinder all the way!
Noice choice.
@@TraceyMush you just need the right kind, NOT the smooth one's.
Cantnwaitnto make this for my 4 boys. Thank you!!! Xx

Absolutely 👍
Thank you for such a wholesome meatless meatball recipe. Now, I can make my own instead of buying them.

@@occo9072 Thanks for your help. I'll try them.
Thank you! Great video. I don't like buckwheat. What else could I use as filler along with the flax meal and oats?
Hmmmm - - I could see this recipe being pressed into muffin tins for something a little less roly poly on the go. Then it occurred to me that it might make a good "meatloaf" recipe too ???
What could be substituted for tofu as I don’t do any soy.
Are they juicy? I’m thrilled I found your channel. I don’t even want to eat out any longer
they are moist
Hi. I tried this recipe. I was so excited but it came out raw. The outside looked beautiful and it rose like flour bread. Can you give me any tips as I would really love this recipe to work.
Jill these look delicious and I plan on making . Curious, can these be baked half way in the oven then cooked the rest of the way in the tomato sauce to be enhanced with the sauce flavors like a traditional Italian meatball?
They would probably dissolve.
@@wholefoodplantbasedcookingshow good to know. I will make exactly as you did. Thank you very much.
I was a little surprised that you used tofu in the recipe. Do you not class this as a precessed food. Ps. I love tofu anyway.
May I know can I omit red wine because I don't take wine. Tq
Yes
New to the channel, Is there anything else I can substitute for the tofu?
I'd like to know that too. I love tofu myself, but we have some with soy allergies in our household, so tofu is out for family meals.
Hi Jill, what can I use instead of beans? Thanks!
Another recipe and Google.
I don't use wine or vinegar. I stay away from alcohol and fermented foods. What would you recommend as a suitable replacement?
Veggie broth
W
What if you don't like buckwheat can I use brown rice
Absolutely
I can't have soy, any idea for alternative? I'm thinking gluten free breadcrumbs, no oil.
Yes, that would work
I don't drink wine and don't want to buy a bottle just for this recipe. Can you freeze leftover wine?
Not sure, sorry
You can buy wine in small single serving size bottles, you know.
I would think you could freeze leftover wine.
Or leftover wine keeps longer than you think in the fridge for cooking
I use shelf stable cooking wine since I don't drink. People who drink wine find this blasphemous, but I've never had wine so it works for me and I think it tastes delicious in recipes.
what can replace buckwheat?
Brown rice
I was about to ask the same question. Thanks.
What do you use for your spaghetti?
We don't have any gluten allergies so we just use regular pasta
can never get the recepe you say is here

what could I use in place of wine? thank you
Veggie broth
@@wholefoodplantbasedcookingshow thanks Jill.
Are these recipes safe for diabetics?
yes
I wonder... how long in an air fryer?
No sure, sorry
Try 390 for 10 minutes
I cant have tofo. What can I use as a substitute?
How about white beans?
This recipe seems fairly easy, could work as an alternative. It’s chickpea tofu.
www.deliciouseveryday.com/burmese-chickpea-tofu-recipe/
Walnuts
Anything you want/have.
Tempeh or seitan
Hello. You cannot assume that wine, or beer, is vegan. Most are clarified using animal products.
:-o
Feel free to tell us how you can call it Meat Balls if there is no meat in it ???
So that people who come across the recipe will have a frame of reference for what it's based on.
Please please please use sea salt or Himalayan salt 🙏🏼

Not suitable for those who dont use soybean
Gross! Mushrooms, yuk. Isn't there anything else to use? New to this meatless way and I miss meatballs and steak.
Honestly you can literally use anything search up meatless meatballs on yt without mushrooms there’s like 10k recipes
