Ingredients
 

  • 1 lb Vegan Ground 453 g , I used Beyond
  • 1/2 cup Onion 64 g, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves Garlic crushed
  • 1 Tbsp Dill 15 g, chopped
  • 2 tsp Oregano 10 g, chopped
  • 2 tsp Mint 10 g, chopped
  • 1/2 cup Plain Breadcrumbs 60 g
  • 3 Tbsp Plant Milk 45 ml, I like Oat because of it’s creaminess
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

Tzatziki Sauce

  • 12 oz Vegan Sour Cream 360 g, I used Tofutti brand
  • 1 Med Cucumber 210 g, partially peeled, seeded and grated.
  • 3 cloves Garlic crushed
  • 1 Tbsp Mint 15 g, chopped
  • 1 Tbsp Dill 15 g, chopped
  • Juice from 1/2 a Lemon
  • 2 tsp Olive Oil 10 ml
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Make the Tzatziki by grating the seeded, Cucumber and squeezing out the excess water.
  • Add the grated Cucumber to the Sour Cream along with the Garlic, Lemon Juice, Dill, Mint and Olive Oil. Mix well and refrigerate overnight.
  • Make the Meatballs by adding the Vegan Ground to a large bowl along with the Garlic, Onion, Dill, Oregano, Mint, Breadcrumbs, Plant Milk, Salt & Pepper.
  • Mix until well combined but be careful not to over mix or they may become too dense when cooked.
  • Scoop up roughly a couple of tbsp of the mixture and roll a ball into the size of golf ball. Set them onto a lined baking sheet. You should yield 14-16 Meatballs.
  • Bake at 400 for 12-14 minutes or until nicely browned. (They should be have a light crust but still juicy inside)
  • Serve with Tzatziki and Pita or with a simple Greek Salad
