14. Mushroom And White Bean Vegan Meatballs

Growing up, Friday night spaghetti was a staple in our household. During the week, we enjoyed a variety of my mom’s daals and sabzis, but Friday nights were reserved for my dad’s pasta creations. Being on the swim team for years, my brother and I appreciated these carb-heavy dinners before our Saturday morning swim meets, feeling like we were fueling up for the Olympics.

Over time, I’ve refined the classic spaghetti recipe (gone are the days of rinsing pasta and forgetting to salt the water – a big no-no!). However, as a vegetarian, I’ve always aimed to add more substance to my spaghetti dishes. With the rise of meatless options recently, I’ve explored various alternatives but often opt to create my own due to the unpronounceable ingredients in some store-bought brands. After several trials, I’ve perfected a vegan meatball recipe that’s ideal for any spaghetti evening.
