I got this recipe from a 3ABN network cooking show called, "Let's Cook Together." Even my meat eaters liked it. I top them with a brown gravy or sometimes spaghetti sauce once they come out of the oven. They are very good and you can make them any size you want to.

SERVES 10 -20 , 1 pan (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 cups coarsely ground walnuts (you can use pecans or any nut you prefer)
2 cups whole wheat bread crumbs (I use 6 or 8 slices of whole wheat bread cut into small cubes, but it you prefer the store bought cr)
1 liter extra firm tofu, that has been drained well and the excess water squeezed out
2 celery ribs, diced
1/4 cup soy sauce, unfermented
3 tablespoons onion flakes
3 tablespoons dried parsley
1 teaspoon sea salt (you can use regular salt if you prefer)
1/4 teaspoon sage
1/4 teaspoon marjoram
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon nutritional yeast flakes
beef gravy or spaghetti sauce, to top when they come out of oven

Directions

1
Mash tofu with fork or potato masher until crumbly and as small as you can get it.
2
Add seasonings and soy sauce to tofu and mix very well.
3
Add bread crumbs, walnuts, celery and onion flakes. Mix well.
4
Mix and knead with hands in bowl to incorporate everything well until the right consistency to form into "meat balls." Make them any size you want.
5
Place in baking dish that has been sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake at 400 until nicely browned. Cover in brown gravy or spaghetti sauce when they come out of the oven and serve hot.
