Vegitarian meatballs

I think these need some improvement but they are gluten free and stayed together pretty well so it is a start.

Ingredients
a splash of oil for the pan
2 leeks white part only chopped
1 red onion chopped
4 cloves or more crushed garlic
1 package mushrooms diced
1 cup rice cooked in 2 cups of veggie stock
2 potatoes boiled and mashed
1 cup chopped pecans
2 spoons of tomato paste

spices this is where the recipe can go good or bad for me
fresh Italian parsley and Italian seasoning along with salt and pepper made a good meat ball to put together with spaghetti

tamari (wheat free soy sauce) salt and pepper
red pepper and some ginger would make great sweet and sour meat balls

chili powder, coriander and cumin would make a good Mexican meatball -if there is such a thing-

Instructions
In a large skillet heat oil and saute leeks and onion. Add garlic and mushrooms a couple of minuets later. Turn off heat and add together the rest of the ingredients.

press into balls and cook in a baking dish at 350* for 30 min turning once half way through. let cool about 10 min. so they can firm up a little.

The key to this is try the batter...it is vegetarian so you can eat it raw to find the flavor you want.
