I Tried Making Vegan Meatballs Out of Eggplant 🍆

[@johncrwarner]

How about cooked rice as a breadcrumb replacement As I always make extra rice - and freeze the excess in half-cup portions (Actually I freeze them in a large muffin tin - which are half cup sized muffins) I like that it is oil free and can be frozen afterwards Oil free because I have to watch my oil intake Freezable because they will make a great addition to meals Quick to reheat and use.

I have also found baking is the best way to make any vegan meatballs! Allows for best texture and is just the easiest - you can put them in the oven and forget about them for some time :D

[@dianec3279]

Totally trying this! I love eggplant anyway so I can only imagine how bomb these are gonna be! Thanks for another great video!

[@extravegantmunchies2363]

same here! I can’t wait to try this. Always looking for new ways to use eggplant 🥰

[@laceybrown6954]

Can't wait till my eggplants in my garden are ready!

[@SnowBunnie305]

I had my eggplant sitting out on the stove thinking what to make for dinner. Now I know what I'm making!!! Yummmm. Thank you

[@annathompson3135]

I tried this and added a bit of tweak but it was so delicious. Thank you!! 😊

[@jenniferhanson4828]

Those meatballs look awesome. I've made cauliflower, bean, and every other version of meatless meatballs, but never will eggplant. Very excited to try them. Thank you for sharing.

[@davidthescottishvegan]

Great video and recipe. I am having a eggplant(aubergine) walnut and pomegranate salad for dinner on Saturday evening.I found the recipe in Vegan food and living a magazine that is available in the UK .

[@Foodotomic]

This is such a great recipe for eggplant, I know only one recipe with eggplant, well now I know 2 :) great recipe as always :)

[@mocprod731]

I recommend u also eggplant's "milanesas", cut the eggplant in slices, then dip the slices in a mix of flour, water or vegan milk, garlic and presley, and then dip them in a crumb mixture, then cook it with oil or in the oven. I hope u understood my english lol, but those milanesas are great!

[@Foodotomic]

@@mocprod731 That's a cool recipe :) love it . thank you so much. I am gonna try both of them

[@insiya4561]

Hello, foodotomic. Try this as well. A delicious dish served with rice 😍 www.veganricha.com/baingan-bharta-roasted-eggplant-curry/

[@raininghispresence4188]

Love your videos! Love eggplant so will try this!!

[@DancingIzzy]

Eggplant is one of my fav veggies, except 90% of time I work with Japanese eggplants. But it looks like I can handle this recipe! And I have everything on hand except nutritional yeast. Going to try this recipe without also substitute bread crumb with rice crumb. Can’t wait and thanks again for your amazing sharing and teaching. 💕

[@lilikoijuci]

I don't have nutritional yeast as well. I'm curious to know how yours turned out. Have you already given it a try?

[@margarett_b]

I love exploring all the options for no-meatballs and have never thought of using eggplant as a basis of them! Such a bomb concept! They really looked fantastic! Also, I feel like people SO OFTEN over-blend the ingredients for meatballs/patties/burgers etc. so great you've mentioned how important it is!

[@sschiff3991]

Wow the photography is fabulous!!!! Omg!!!!! excellent recipe!!!!

[@magica1355]

im currently growing eggplant for the first time and this made me so excited lmao

[@MuNeQuiTaBrAviTa]

Wow!!! Love this!!!!! Looks delicious!!! Love how versatile it. Will definitely be trying this soon!!! 😛Thanks for sharing!

[@stevenreichertart]

These look yummy-thanks for the demo!

[@mandydyer2426]

I definitely need to try this. Eggplant is something I have a hard time figuring out what to do with so this is awesome.

[@alyssalane3442]

I love that you guys gave the recipe, but also ways to incorporate it into meals!!

[@cw6391]

Everything looks delicious and I'll be trying these recipes in the coming weeks, but that vegan cheese sauce hack was brilliant. I bought a bag of Follow Your Heart mozzarella shreds early on in the pandemic when we were all panic buying; I haven't used it yet, but I'm definitely going to whip up a dish of loaded nachos tomorrow and make a sauce with the shreds and oat milk and drizzle it on top. Thank you for the great video!

[@naturally9369]

Those meatballs look amazing! I love eggplants and can't wait to try and make them❣

[@jessicacolon5265]

Your eggplant meatballs was the first vegan recipe I came across when exploring eating plantbased. It's how I found your website and youtube channel.

[@arianaenriquez1672]

Thanks for posting! Didn’t want my eggplant to go to waste and this is our dinner for tonight 🤗 along with Chris’s Vegan Chilli Mac recipe from your Kid friendly recipe video

[@cindyrobinson5667]

Must try these. Thanks for sharing

[@TheIan818]

Thanks for the recipes and ideas! Btw you guys are such an adorable couple!

[@robinsutton4952]

My biggest fear of vegan was not having meatballs. But finding recipes like these makes makes my world go on. Love you guys!

[@someguy2135]

You can buy plant based meatballs ready to heat and eat from Trader Joe's, and other stores. For Swedish style meatballs Ikea sells them frozen or in their cafeteria. Be sure to choose the Veggie Balls, since the Plant Balls have dairy in them. Check the label in case I reversed the terms. I haven't tried the TJoes, but the Ikea are tasty.

[@robinsutton4952]

@@someguy2135 found Trader Joe’s, very tasty. Trader Joe’s has a nice supply of vegan frozen.

[@veg94]
