Instructions

To make Veggie Balls:
  • Trim beets and scrub outside surface, leaving peels on. Shred beets with food processor or box grater.
  • Place beans in a mixing bowl and mash slightly with a potato masher to achieve a thick mixture with some lumps.
  • Add beets, onions, garlic, mushrooms, parsley, hazelnuts, flax seeds, breadcrumbs, sage, tarragon, thyme, smoked paprika, and black pepper. Toss together well.
  • Mix in soy sauce, tahini, and lemon juice—using hands to combine well.
  • Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour (or overnight).
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and spray a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Form 24 golf ball-sized balls out of the mixture and place evenly on baking sheet.
  • Bake veggie balls in top rack of oven for about 40 minutes, until golden brown.
  • Serve with Almond Sage Cranberry Crema.
To Make Almond Sage Cranberry Crema:
  • Soak almonds in water for 2 hours (or overnight).
  • Drain water and place soaked almonds in the container of a blender or food processor.
  • Add plant milk, lemon juice, garlic, black pepper, and ground sage and process to make a thick, creamy dip.
  • Transfer crema to a dish and stir in fresh sage, cranberries, and salt if desired. May garnish with additional freshly ground black pepper and fresh sage.
  • Makes 8 servings (about 2 1/2 tablespoons each)
