Easy oven-baked broccoli, lentil and spinach bites
Easy oven-baked broccoli, lentil and spinach bites with courgetti noodles! 🌱
Ingredients: (makes 12 “bites/balls”)
1 cup spinach, chopped finely
½ yellow onion, chopped finely
150g cooked puy lentils (½ bag of @merchantgourmet are what I used)
½ head broccoli, florettes chopped finely
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp Italian seasoning
2 medium eggs
Dash of salt
Preheat oven to 180c fan. Mix all ingredients together in a bowl and shape into ball shapes, they may seem loose but will form shape and hold after baked. Place baking paper onto a baking tray. Place balls onto tray (should make 12) and place into the oven for 20-22 minutes until starting to brown and feeling spongey but holding form. Serve on top of your courgetti (made using my @oxouk spiraliser) boiled in water for under a minute for al dente or until desired softness) and with a heated tomato sauce of your choice!
This is the perfect meatless monday meal (for tomorrow) and you can eat the bites on their own with some garlic mayo (like Josh did about half of them) or like this as a meatball replacement! I’m working on a vegan version that I’m going to be sharing soon. Who is doing Veganuary?
