However, I see in your comments here (on the spaghetti and meatballs page) that you say you mix in some brown rice. I don’t see any brown rice in the recipe “Vegan Meatballs Recipe”. Have you modified that recipe to not include rice, as an improvement to that recipe, or is it an accidental omission?

Thank you! With pasta, I just scoop the sauce on top. You could also simmer the meatballs over low heat in a skillet with the sauce for just a few minutes, until warmed through.

Its spring n summer all in one. I got some store bought veggie balls, how do I ensure the sauce also gets absorbed in the balls and taste homogeneous instead of two different items.

I don’t think the mushroom flavor is very strong here. Let me know if you give them a go!

I absolutely love the addition of zucchini to this. The plant-based meatballs add a bit of contrast to the zucchini, which enhances the flavor. I’m ecstatic to try this sometime soon!

It’s actually listed in the caption of that post.

Hi Karen, I don’t have a substitute tested for the mushrooms in the mushroom meatballs. The second option here uses plant based ground meat and no mushrooms. Hope that helps!
