Vegetarian Mock Meatballs

It’s voting season, which means we are inundated with political ads. I don’t know about you, but I’ve never changed my vote based on an oversized postcard I get in the mail, pop-up ads on my screen, or repetitive migraine inducing commercials!

In this season of voting, please don’t let differences in opinions cause conflict in your life. I know sometimes it’s easier said than done, but you can and should still love (or at least be kind to) the people you disagree with! There are no two people in this world who perfectly agree with each other about everything.

Just like your family may not agree what to serve these Mock Meatballs with! Some may want them with a side of Creamy Mashed Potatoes & Easy Garlic Knots and some may want Scalloped Potatoes & Cloverleaf Dinner Rolls !
