Meatless Meatballs

A few years ago, meatballs were trending, and every restaurant served at least three different types, but rarely were their vegan options. We visited a cute vegan restaurant in Solon, Ohio, and had the best meatballs ever, and they were vegan. This is a simple recipe that is easy and shareable. We gifted a dozen meatless balls to friends and family this holiday season, and they would not have guessed they were vegan. The taste is incredible, and with the help of an air-fryer, these balls have the same texture as meaty-meat meatballs.

Bulgur is a whole-,grain made from cracked wheat. It’s packed with vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Fiber-rich foods like bulgur may reduce chronic disease risk, promote weight loss, and improve digestion and gut health. Quinoa also includes many benefits, such as they are high in proteins with a range of amino acids (vital for supporting muscle development and immune activity.)
