Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked wild rice
- 1 heaping cup finely chopped mushrooms
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- olive oil (optional)
- 3 tablespoons salted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder and/or garlic powder
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 1 1/2 cups vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- salt and black pepper to taste
Steps
-
Preheat the oven to 425. Mix the meatball ingredients together. Roll into balls (1-2 tablespoons each) and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until firm when you press them.
-
Melt butter in a large skillet. Add onion powder, garlic powder, and flour. Let it bubble for a few minutes to remove any floury taste. Slowly add broth, whisking after each addition, to make a smooth sauce. Stir in sour cream. Adjust consistency to taste with more broth. Season to taste.
-
Place your cooked meatballs in the gravy and get them all nice and saucy. Serve with potatoes, salad, or roasted veggies.
