Woohoo! Thanks, Vanessa 🙌

Oh wow they are so delicious!!!! I’m in love with this recipe!

Absolutely delicious!!

Delicious. The “meatballs” weren’t very crispy, but the taste was amazing overall.

Oh my gosh I cannot wait to try this!

I made it for a weeknight meal and it turned out so well 🙂

Was super yummy!!! Will make Again

Easy + delicious per usual! This recipe takes time but every element is worth it. The cashew based cheese spread was next level - I can’t wait to use that in future mozzarella substitute situations! Thanks to the PUL team for another hit! 🥖🍅

Yay we're so happy to hear, Jamie - the mozzarella is one of our favourites 🤗

Made this for the first time last night and my family really enjoyed it! The bread I bought was a bit too much for how small the “meatballs” were so I’ll definitely double the recipe next time. The vegan mozzarella was delicious but not as smooth as the pictures looked. Overall it was still a very good and filling meal:)

So delicious!! The homemade mozzarella was so easy to make and the texture so pleasant!!
With all the ingredients it was a perfect match!!

Meatballs were a little wet so I added more breadcrumbs but they tasted amazing! Mozzarella got thick very fast within 1 min, kept adding more water but was super thick. I think it tastes like mozzarella though! Helped with my meatball sub craving! Would definitely make again!

Hey Alicia, a lovely idea to add more breadcrumbs to the mixture if needed! For the mozzarella thickening fast, turning down the stove heat a bit could help. So happy the "meatball" sub was enjoyed 😃

I made there’s for dinner and they were fantastic. I cook my onions in wine near they end as they browned for more flavor .I also made my own marinara (semi-homemade). These were filling and delicious and I really enjoyed eating them 🤣. If I could post a picture I would . Also I used vegan cheese!

I doubled batch recipe
Cooking in the oven and smells amazing 😀
I used ready to eat quinoa by naplo brand ( worked brilliantly )
I did sub my nutritional yeast for vegan Parmesan
Will freeze some of the balls
I’ve prepped theses for tomorrows dinner
Can’t wait to enjoy them

Assembled for dinner this evening
I made my sourdough hotdog buns aswell
Absolutely amazing 🥰
So filling
Flavours perfect
Even my daughters loved them
Added to favourite list 😀

These were super fun to make and were a huge hit at dinner. Very filling and delicious!

These “meatballs” were delicious and I loved the umami flavor from the sun dried tomatoes! I air fried them at 380F for about 25 min and subbed in smoked paprika. I had one question about the instructions, it mentions to put all of the meatball ingredients in the food processor and then in the following step it says to add in an extra 1/4 cup of chickpeas that is not listed in the overview of ingredients. Does it mean add half of the chickpeas in two increments or 1/2 cup chickpeas in and then an additional 1/4cup?

Hey Tischan, thanks a bunch for taking the time to share your experience with the recipe! We've just updated it. It's first 1/2 cup that gets blended and then 1/4 cup for coarsely incorporating.😊

So good! My husband devoured more than one serving for sure lol.

Thank you for the beautiful app and great recipes- I haven’t tried a recipe yet and am trying to do a week plan. I’m in need of you to offer a second tutorial figuring it out but I’m sure I will understand the process soon. Peace and hugs. 🙏🪷🌈

Hey Heidi, aw thanks so much for your interest in the PUL App 💛 in case it helps and you haven't already seen it, we have a YouTube tutorial on the Nourish method here: https://youtu.be/N3f1PfRL2h0 We're also happy to help if you reach out to support@pickuplimes.com 🤗

This turned out way better than expected! I had to add more bread crumbs to ensure the “meat” balls stuck together, but otherwise it really hit the spot for the comfort food craving!

Wow! So delicious!

Hello! I just made this recipe and it is INCREDIBLE!!!!! It hits the spot 🤤🤤🤤
I just wanted to mention that i think it would be helpful to mention at step 6 that you put the dish in the oven for 30 min. For some might be obvious but for someone like me, a rookie, i didn’t think about that (actually tought that the balls need to rest for 30 min 😂😂). Other than that everything was amazing!!!!

Yayyy! We're so glad it was enjoyed, Lorena, and thanks so much for pointing that out! I hope it didn't confuse you too much. We've since updated the directions to indicate the time - thanks so much for helping us improve what we! 🫶

These chickpea meatballs were amazing! Lots of flavour and really easy to make. I had some tortillas I needed to use up so I filled them with the ingredients and lightly pan fried them. So delicious—definitely a new staple for me.

Woohoo! So happy to hear, Hilary, thank you 🤗
