Gluten-Free and Vegan Meatball Mix

Directions

1. 1
   Put the nuts and oats (or quinoa flakes) into a food processor and pulse several times to coarsely chop the nuts. Do not grind to a flour–they should be about the size of popcorn kernels.
2. 2
   Pour into a bowl or storage bag.
3. 3
   Add all remaining ingredients and mix well. Keep prepared mix in the refrigerator until ready to use. To make the entire batch of mix, pour it into a bowl and add 2/3 cup boiling water. Stir and let stand for 15 minutes as you preheat oven to 350 F. Using wet hands, form the mixture into about 12 1-inch balls.
4. 4
   Place on a silicone mat or oiled baking sheet.
5. 5
   Bake for 20-25 minutes, turning once halfway through. Cover with hot spaghetti sauce and serve. To make 1/2 a batch, measure out 3/4 of a cup of the mixture and add 1/3 cup boiling water. Proceed as above.
