Prep Time 5 mins
Cook Time 20 mins
Total Time 25 mins
- 1 can pinto or black beans
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/3 cup quick oats or almond flour If using quick oats-pulse a few times in food processor before adding other ingredients.
- 1 tsp minced garlic or 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1 24 oz Marinara sauce organic/non gmo if you can
- 1 box gluten free spagetti pasta
Preheat the oven to 350 F if baking instead of frying. Drain and rinse the beans very well. Combine everything in a food processor until evenly blended – stop while it still has some texture but no large pieces remain. Roll into balls (small meatballs cook much more evenly), and either pan fry in a little oil, or place on a parchment-lined baking tray and cook on the center rack for 10 minutes, then turn each ball and bake an additional 10 minutes or until desired texture is reached.
Pair with your favorite gluten free pasta and low sugar marinara.
