Mushroom Meatballs - Vegetarian Dinner

These soft and moist Mushroom Meatballs are simple to prepare and make a perfect vegetarian dinner!

How about some vegetarian meatballs, people? You are probably feeling a little skeptical about these right now, but let me assure you – these Vegetarian Mushroom Meatballs are fantastic! They are super moist and have a wonderful earthy and nutty taste. You only have to taste these once, and they will surely end up in your “Favorites” list…

I cook a lot of vegetarian dishes, because my husband and I are trying to save some animal lives. I believe that people consume way too much meat on a daily basis, and, if we all cut back on meat even a little bit, it would have a significant impact. Plus, it’s better for your health. What are your thoughts about that?

Even a major meat lover won’t be disappointed with these meatless meatballs. ??

FRYING VS. BAKING MUSHROOM MEATBALLS

Let’s talk about the cooking process a little. Once you roll the mushroom mixture into balls, you’ll have to decide whether you want to fry these or bake them. I’ve tried doing both and they both turned out great. And while frying the meatballs does give them a nice crust, the baked meatballs taste almost the same, but they are healthier. So, I’ll leave this choice to you. If you decide to bake these, however, make sure you have these Silicone Baking Sheets. I’ve recently purchased these and I cannot believe I lived so long without them.

MUSHROOM MEATBALLS GARNISH OPTIONS

Garnish the meatballs with some fresh parsley, grated Parmesan cheese or some feta cheese. Oh, I love feta so much! Of course, I couldn’t resist topping these meatballs with feta. My husband and I ate them with bread. Dipping the bread in the Marinara-Feta sauce and biting the mushroom meatballs was AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE!

WHAT TO SERVE MUSHROOM MEATBALLS WITH

Serve these mushroom meatballs with pasta, rice, quinoa, couscous, or fresh salad. I also love enjoying these with a slice of crusty bread.
