Ingredients
  

Meatballs

  • 8 oz. plant-based meat like Impossible or Beyond
  • 8 oz. plant-based sausage crumbled
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened plant milk
  • 1/3 cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 Tbsp chopped parsley
  • 1 small shallot finely chopped
  • 3 - 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 Tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/4 tsp allspice
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp White Pepper
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • More parsley for garnish

Gravy

Cashew Cream

  • 1/2 cup cashews
  • 1 cup unsweetened plant milk
  • 1 tsp lemon juice more to taste
  • Salt to taste

Instructions
 

Cashew Cream

  • Soak your cashews in boiling water for 10 minutes.
  • Drain and blend your soaked cashews and the rest of the ingredients for the cashew cream in a high speed blender. Adjust salt and lemon juice to taste.

Meatballs

  • In a bowl, combine all the ingredients for the meatballs and mix with your hands or a spatula (I find hands are the best and it's fun!)
  • Take about 1 oz. of the meatball mixture and roll into a ball. I used a scooper to make sure they were all the same size.
  • When all meatballs are rolled, add some oil to a pan over medium heat. Once oil is heated, add the meatballs and brown them on all sides.
  • After meatballs have browned, remove from the pan and set aside.

Gravy

  • In the same pan let's make the gravy. Add the vegan butter and melt. Once melted, whisk in the flour a tablespoon at a time to form the roux. Cook for a minute or so.
  • Add the beefless or veggie broth slowly, about 1/2 cup at a time, whisking the entire time to combine and avoid lumps. Repeat until all the broth is whisked in.
  • Then add the soy sauce, Dijon mustard, worcestershire, and vegan sour / cashew cream. Adjust to taste.
  • Drizzle as much gravy as you like over the meatballs and serve with pasta, mashed potatoes or on a hoagie roll!
  • ENJOY!

Notes

Some folks have reported that the meatballs get soft and mush if left in the gravy for too long, so I suggest keeping them separate until you eat them!
