Holiday Buffet Meatballs

  5.0 – 5 reviews  • Meatball Appetizer Recipes

This recipe was developed after I had my first black bean vegetarian burger and thought I needed to learn how to cook one. However, I changed my mind and went with a vegetarian black bean meatloaf instead. This recipe, which is based on a 4-ounce portion, might be used to create twelve 4-ounce burgers rather than a single meatloaf.

Accidentally bought Meatless Meatballs – no one knew. Turned out great. I also did them in a slow cooker for a couple hours.

These are AMAZING. They have become a holiday staple appetizer in my house. This year my dad (jokingly) told me that he wouldn’t come for Christmas if I didn’t make these meatballs lol
