Delicious Vegetable Meatballs for a Healthy Snack

Start by breaking the cauliflower into small florets. You can use a grater or blend it using a food processor until it reaches a fine texture. It should be similar to breadcrumbs, so be careful not to over-process.

Next, take your carrot and grate it as well. Combine the grated carrot with the processed cauliflower in a large mixing bowl.

Grate the mozzarella cheese and set it aside. Chop the fresh dill and parsley finely.

Add the grated cheese and chopped herbs into the bowl with the cauliflower and carrot mixture.

In the same bowl, add the egg, breadcrumbs, and the seasonings including salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix everything thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.

The mixture should be easily moldable; if it’s too wet, you can add a bit more breadcrumbs.

Using your hands, shape the mixture into meatballs about the size of a walnut. Be sure they are compact so they hold together during baking.

Place the formed meatballs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they are spaced out to allow for even baking.

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit).

Once the oven is preheated, bake the meatballs for 30-35 minutes. Keep an eye on them, as baking times can vary based on your specific oven.

When they are golden brown and firm, they are ready to be enjoyed!
