Ingredients
- 1/4 cup millet + 3/4 cup water (allow 20 minutes to cook)

- 3 cloves garlic
- 8 oz. pkg. tempeh
- 1/2 cup salsa ( I used Frontera Double Roasted Tomato available at Sprouts)
- 3 Tablespoons ketchup (365 Whole Foods Brand)
- 1 Tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 Tablespoon dried basil

- 1/4 cup fresh parsley
- 8 oz. cooked spaghetti
- marinara sauce (your favorite brand)
- parchment paper or pizza stone
Preparation:
- Preheat oven to 375º.
- Prepare millet by boiling 3/4 cup water and 1/4 cup dry millet in a small saucepan. Lower heat to simmer, cover and cook for 20 minutes.
- Sauté onion and garlic cloves with 1 teaspoon oil or water, until soft and translucent. Add to the food processor when done.
- Add tempeh to food processor and pulse to break up like ground meat, add all of the remaining meat ingredients except millet and brown rice flour.
- Do not over blend. A dry consistency is best.
- Mix vegan meat in a bowl with cooked millet and 1/2 cup flour, form into balls or use a small cookie scoop. Place balls on a pizza stone or parchment lined baking sheet.

- While baking prepare pasta and heat marinara sauce on cooktop.
- Plate and serve with marinara sauce covering spaghetti and meatballs.
