About Plant-based meatballs

Plant-based meatballs are a flavorful and nutritious alternative to traditional meat-based options, crafted using ingredients such as textured vegetable protein, beans, lentils, grains, and seasonings like garlic, onion, and herbs. Typically inspired by Mediterranean or Italian cuisine, their bold flavors mimic classic meatball recipes while catering to vegetarian and vegan diets. Packed with plant proteins, fiber, and essential nutrients, they support heart health, aid digestion, and are generally lower in saturated fats compared to their meat counterparts. Many varieties are also free of cholesterol and rich in vitamins from added vegetables. However, some store-bought options may be high in sodium or contain processed additives, so it's important to check labels or prepare them fresh at home. These versatile meatballs pair well with pasta dishes, salads, or sub sandwiches for a wholesome meal that’s kind to your body and the planet.
