I found this recipe on a blog, and tried it for a meat-free alternative with homemade tomato sauce and spaghetti. I grew up eating a version made with tofu, and enjoy the flavor of these more. I'll definitely be making them again!
Ingredients:
4 eggs
1 cup parmesan cheese
1/2 cup cottage cheese
1 cup pecans
1 teaspoon italian seasoning
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups italian seasoned breadcrumbs
Directions:
1. Chop pecans in a food processor.
2. Add breadcrumbs (I used whole wheat, but might try 4 slices of toasted Italian bread next time).
3. Add the rest of the ingredients and pulse until blended.
4. Spray your hands with cooking spray or olive oil and roll 2 inch round balls.
5. Place balls into prepared 9 by 13 glass dish. Bake at 350 for 40 minutes.
