Vegetarian "Meatballs"

I enjoyed these with marinara sauce for a vegetarian version of the traditional Spaghetti and Meatballs. Delicious.

About 1 1/4 cups vegetarian beef (note: you must use the kind that will form a ball, some veg beef falls apart. I use Lightlife Gimme Lean.)
1 tbsp. parsley, dried or fresh
2 tbsp. bread crumbs
2 tbsp. diced onion
1 tbsp. worchestshire sauce
Dash of cayenne pepper
½ tsp. garlic powder
Salt & pepper
2 or 3 tbsp. olive oil
2 tbsp. eggwhites (optional)

1) Mix all ingredients except olive oil together, using clean hands.

2) Form into balls, your choice of size. I made mine about the size of golf balls. You could make them really small and serve as an appetizer.

3) Fry in olive oil on medium-high heat, turning to brown on all sides.

4) Remove and let drain on paper towel.

5) Serve with your favorite sauce.

Makes 10 veg meatballs (golf ball size).
